Our teeth play an integral role in our lives and are some of the most important parts of our bodies. They help in chewing food and aid in the structure of the face and general appearance. Healthy teeth are also key in ensuring healthy lives. Teeth can however be damaged, by accidents, illness or infections, damaging their structure and affecting their usability. This may require intervention to solve this problem. One of the best solutions that modern dentistry has brought is teeth implants. Teeth implants are revolutionizing dental rejuvenations, and Nairobi Sterling Dental Clinic is at the forefront of delivering this service to our clients.
What are teeth implants?
Teeth implants can be described as artificial and replaceable tooth roots. They are metal posts or frames that are surgically positioned on the jaws by the use of screw-like instruments. These structures are used as anchors, that hold artificial teeth placed as a replacement for the lost teeth. A single implant can be used to hold one or more teeth, depending on its structure. In most cases, a dental crown that is custom-made for the individual patient is used. Crowns are artificial, tooth-like caps used to offer the support or functions that a normal tooth would. They are made to suit the person’s dental structure, colour and appearance, and are placed on the implants.
Types of implants
There are various types of dental implants available, but two of them are the most commonly used. These are endosteal implants and subperiosteal implants. The choice of implant depends on factors such as bone density, gum health, and the patient’s specific needs.
- Endosteal implants- They are the most common type of implants used in the world today. They are surgically implanted into the jawbone. Artificial teeth are then placed on the implants.
- Subperiosteal implants- They are metallic frames that are fitted onto the jawbone just below the gum tissue. As the gums heal, the frame becomes fixed to the jawbone. Posts are fitted onto the frames, although they at times may be protruding through the gums. the artificial teeth are then staged on the posts.
The implant procedure

At Nairobi Sterling Dental Clinic, it will cost you a relatively lower cost, as we charge Ksh.100,000 for implants and Ksh.50,000 for a crown. In addition to this, some people may require a bone graft before the implants are installed. This will bear an extra cost of Ksh.50,000 to Ksh.100,000 per tooth, as per the specific requirements. Our dental experts conduct an elaborate consultation with the patients and assess their dental structure and current state. They then conduct preliminary tests to assess if a bone graft is necessary and provide the required guidance. Patients who require bone grafts are then instructed on the way forward. This brings the total cost of the implants and bone graft to around Ksh.100,000. This is relatively cheaper than other clinics charge. Additionally, our exceptional care and quality products will be worth every coin spent.
At the clinic, our commitment to delivering affordable and accessible services to our patients has seen us coming up with accommodative measures to aid in meeting the cost of treatment. We have curated a flexible payment plan for patients who require dental implants. In this plan, patients are required to pay for just 50% of the total treatment cost at the beginning of the treatment. The patient then gets the implants at the clinic and starts the treatment. They are then required to meet the remaining 50% of the treatment cost within the duration of the treatment, and the post-treatment care. Moreover, we only charge a one-time consultation fee before the treatment. The patient can then access our specialists without having to pay for extra consultation fees, during the entire duration of treatment. The consultation fee is Ksh.3000, which is also relatively cheaper.
In addition to this, we recognize that not only people might be able to meet this cost, owing to the high cost of living in the country. In this regard, we have partnered with various insurance companies in the country to help patients meet the cost of teeth implants and other dental services. Our insurance partners are reputable and trustworthy companies, whose years of relevance and operation are a testament to their good work. They have policies that aid in their clients meeting the costs of dental treatment and services. Patients covered by these insurance, and with such policies can enjoy the weight of the cost of treatment being lifted off their shoulders.
