Across Kenya, dental treatment can range from about KES 1,000 for consultation to KES 1,800,000+ for full mouth implant cases. The most searched costs are tooth removal, fillings, root canal, cleaning, crowns, dentures, implants and braces.

Tooth removal in Kenya commonly ranges from KES 5,000 to KES 10,000 for simple extraction and KES 15,000 to KES 35,000+ for surgical or complicated extraction. Wisdom tooth removal may range from KES 20,000 to KES 45,000+ depending on impaction.

Tooth extraction cost in Kenya is usually similar to tooth removal cost: KES 5,000 - 10,000 for simple extraction, KES 15,000 - 35,000+ for difficult extraction, and KES 20,000 - 45,000+ for wisdom tooth surgery.

Tooth extraction cost in Nairobi commonly ranges from KES 5,000 to KES 35,000+. The final cost depends on whether the tooth is visible, broken, infected, impacted or close to important structures.

Tooth filling in Kenya commonly costs KES 5,000 - 15,000+. A small filling may be KES 5,000 - 7,000, a moderate filling KES 8,000 - 12,000, and a complex filling or core buildup KES 15,000+.

Filling a broken tooth may cost KES 5,000 - 15,000+ if the break is small or moderate. If the tooth is badly broken, infected or weak, the dentist may recommend root canal treatment, crown or extraction instead.

The cheapest safe option for a small broken tooth is usually a composite filling or bonding, often around KES 5,000 - 15,000+. Larger breaks may need a crown, veneer or root canal depending on the damage.

Root canal cost in Kenya commonly starts around KES 25,000 for front teeth, KES 35,000+ for premolars and KES 45,000 - 80,000+ for molars. Crown or buildup costs may be separate.

In Nairobi, budget about KES 25,000 - 80,000+ for root canal treatment depending on the tooth and infection. If the tooth is weak, a crown may add KES 40,000 - 90,000+.

If the tooth can be saved, root canal treatment may be better because it preserves the natural tooth. Extraction may be cheaper upfront, but replacing the missing tooth later with a denture, bridge or implant adds cost.

Teeth cleaning in Nairobi commonly ranges from KES 5,000 to KES 15,000. Routine cleaning costs less, while heavy tartar, stains, sensitivity or gum disease may require deeper cleaning.

Teeth cleaning in Kenya usually ranges from KES 5,000 - 15,000 depending on the clinic, plaque levels, stains and whether gum treatment is needed.

A tooth crown in Kenya commonly ranges from KES 35,000 to KES 90,000+. PFM crowns are often around KES 35,000, while zirconia, Emax or ceramic crowns can be KES 55,000+.

The cheapest tooth crown is usually a metal or PFM-style crown depending on the clinic and tooth location. In Nairobi planning terms, many PFM crowns sit around KES 35,000, while more aesthetic ceramic options cost more.

A white crown such as zirconia, Emax or full ceramic often costs around KES 55,000 - 90,000+ per tooth depending on material, lab work and the tooth being restored.

Sometimes, yes. If the crack has not split the root and infection is controlled, a crown can protect the tooth. If the nerve is infected, root canal treatment may be needed before the crown.

Permanent tooth replacement in Kenya depends on the option. A fixed bridge may cost KES 105,000 - 270,000+ for a 3-unit bridge. A single dental implant may cost KES 200,000 - 350,000+. Full mouth implant options can start from KES 1,800,000+.

Replacing one tooth can cost from about KES 20,000+ with a removable partial denture, KES 105,000 - 270,000+ with a bridge depending on units, or KES 200,000 - 350,000+ with a dental implant plan.

The cheapest safe option is usually a removable partial denture. It costs less upfront than a bridge or implant, but it is removable and may need adjustments over time.

A single tooth implant in Kenya commonly ranges from KES 200,000 to KES 350,000+ depending on implant system, imaging, bone condition, abutment and crown.

For this exact search, a realistic Nairobi planning range is KES 200,000 - 350,000+ for one implant tooth plan. The dentist must assess bone and gum condition before confirming.
