Orthodontist

Dr Achieng' Otieno

Achieng' straightens teeth for teenagers and adults with braces and clear aligners — including many adults whose teeth moved back after braces as children.

“Most of my adult patients waited ten years to straighten their teeth. The treatment usually takes less than one.”

Achieng’ is a specialist orthodontist, trained at the University of Nairobi. She joined Shwari in 2018 to build a straightening service for adults who felt too old, too busy or too self-conscious for braces.

Most of her patients now choose clear aligners — removable, nearly invisible trays changed every one to two weeks. For teenagers and complex bites she still recommends fixed braces, and she’ll explain why.

What patients can expect

A digital scan instead of messy moulds, a preview of how your teeth are planned to move, and a fixed treatment fee agreed before you start — with retainers included. Achieng’ sees patients on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.
