Tips And Advice From Our Dentists

Professional recommendations to help you protect your teeth, improve your smile, and maintain excellent oral health at home.

What Our Dentists Recommend

Follow these evidence-based tips from our clinical team to keep your teeth healthy between visits.

Daily Hygiene
🪥

Brush Properly – Twice a Day

Our dentists recommend brushing for at least 2 minutes twice a day using a soft-bristle toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Use gentle circular motions — aggressive scrubbing damages enamel and gums over time.

Flossing
🧵

Floss Daily — No Exceptions

Flossing removes plaque from between teeth where your brush simply cannot reach. Our dentists say that skipping flossing means leaving 35% of your tooth surfaces uncleaned every single day.

Nutrition
🥦

Watch Your Sugar Intake

Sugar feeds the bacteria that cause tooth decay. Limit sugary drinks, sweets, and biscuits — especially between meals. When you do have sugar, rinse your mouth with water immediately after to dilute the acids.

Hydration
💧

Drink Water Throughout the Day

Water — especially fluoridated water — is the best drink for your teeth. It washes away food particles and bacteria, neutralises acids, and keeps your mouth from getting dry, which is a major cavity risk factor.

Checkups
📅

Visit the Dentist Every 6 Months

Even if your teeth feel fine, regular checkups allow our dentists to catch problems early before they become painful and expensive. Professional cleans also remove hardened tartar that brushing alone cannot remove.

Protection
😴

If You Grind Your Teeth, Get a Night Guard

Bruxism (teeth grinding) wears down your enamel silently while you sleep. Our dentists can fit a custom night guard to protect your teeth and jaw joints. Ask us about this at your next appointment.

Children
👶

Start Dental Visits Early for Children

Our dentists recommend bringing your child for their first dental visit when their first tooth appears, or by their first birthday. Early visits build positive dental habits and catch development issues early.

Emergencies
🚨

Don't Ignore Tooth Pain

Toothache is never normal. It means something is wrong — often a cavity, infection, or cracked tooth. The longer you wait, the worse it gets. Call us immediately if you experience any dental pain or swelling.

Lifestyle
🚭

Avoid Smoking & Tobacco Products

Smoking stains teeth, causes gum disease, slows healing after procedures, and dramatically increases the risk of oral cancer. Quitting is the single best thing you can do for your oral — and overall — health.

A Healthy Smile Takes Just 5 Minutes a Day

Our dentists put together this simple daily routine to help you maintain a healthy mouth at home. Follow these steps consistently and you'll see a real difference at your next check-up.

Morning: Brush & Floss

Start every morning by brushing for 2 minutes, then flossing. This removes the bacteria that built up overnight.

🥤

Throughout the Day: Choose Water

Sip water instead of sugary drinks. If you must have juice or soda, use a straw to minimise contact with teeth.

🌙

Night: Brush Again + Mouthwash

Brush before bed to remove the day's plaque. Use an antiseptic mouthwash to kill remaining bacteria overnight.

Every 6 Months: Visit Royal Care Dental

A professional cleaning and check-up twice a year is essential. We'll catch problems early and keep your smile bright.

Veneers
"

I had been hiding my smile for years. Royal Care Dental gave me my confidence back completely. My veneers look so natural — people keep asking if I got new teeth. The clinic is spotless and the staff are incredibly welcoming.

Pediatric Care
"

I brought my 6-year-old who was absolutely terrified of dentists. The team was so patient and gentle — she left smiling and actually asked when we can come back! Best experience ever for a child.

After 14 months with clear aligners, my teeth are perfectly straight. The before and after difference is unbelievable. I wish I had done this years ago. Highly recommend Royal Care Dental to everyone in Nairobi.

Root Canal

I was terrified of my root canal but honestly felt no pain whatsoever. Everything was explained to me step by step. The pricing is very fair and much better than other clinics I visited in Nairobi. Will definitely return.

I lost a tooth in an accident and was devastated. Royal Care Dental fitted an implant that looks and feels completely like a real tooth. The whole process was smooth, professional, and painless. Worth every shilling!

Teeth Whitening
"

My teeth had yellowed badly from years of tea and coffee. One whitening session at Royal Care Dental and they are now 7 shades brighter. I am genuinely shocked at the results. Very affordable too compared to what I expected.

Braces for 18 months — completely worth it. The clinic uses modern equipment, adjustments were always on time, and the results are stunning. My bite is perfect and my smile has completely transformed. Highly recommend!
