The process

Five steps from message to smile.

01

Free consultation

Send us a few photos or hop on a video call. A dentist reviews and tells you what is actually feasible.

02

Treatment plan & quote

Within 48 hours you get a written plan, a fixed price, and a recommended length of stay.

03

Book travel

We help match flights to your treatment window and book the partner hotel at the corporate rate.

04

Treatment in Albania

Airport pickup. Translator in the chair if you need one. Most patients are walking and eating soft food the same evening.

05

Follow-up at home

WhatsApp the surgeon directly for a year after. Warranty work is honoured at any partner clinic at no cost.

Beyond the dental chair

Everything's arranged. You arrive and get treated.

Each partner clinic includes these as standard. No upsells at the counter.

Airport pickup

Driver waiting at Rinas with a name sign. Direct to your hotel or clinic.

🏨

Hotel at partner rate

Boutique hotels near the clinic at 25-30% below public rates.

🗣

Translation in the chair

English, German, Italian, Greek - confirmed in writing before you fly.

🛡

Treatment guarantee

Written warranty. 5 years on implants, 3 on crowns, 1 on root canals.

📞

Post-op support

Direct WhatsApp line to the surgeon for 12 months after treatment.

💳

Transparent pricing

The quote is the price. No counter-side upsells, no surprises at checkout.

Credentials

How we vet every partner clinic.

The dentists

Heads of clinic average 15+ years of practice. Most trained in Vienna, Bologna, or Tirana, with continuing education in Germany and the US. Specialists (oral surgeons, periodontists, prosthodontists) handle their own scope - no GP doing implants on the side.

Sterilization

All partner clinics run EU Class B autoclaves to EN-13060 - the same standard as Swiss and German dental practices. Instrument tracking, single-use sterile drapes, and gloved-and-changed protocol between patients.

Materials

Same brands you would get at home:

  • Straumann (Switzerland) — implants
  • Nobel Biocare (Sweden/US) — implants
  • BioHorizons (US) — implants
  • Ivoclar Vivadent — ceramics

Warranty

5 years on implants, 3 years on crowns and veneers, 1 year on root canals. Honoured at any partner clinic - fly back and the work is on them.

Patient stories

What it actually felt like.

Patients who came over the past 12 months, in their own words.

Markus W.
Markus W.
"My Swiss dentist quoted CHF 18,000. The Tirana clinic did it for under €4,000 — same Straumann implants, same warranty. The team picked me up at the airport, English-speaking throughout, and the surgeon called me twice after I flew home."
Sabine R.
Sabine R.
"I was nervous about flying for dental work. The video consult put me at ease — they showed me the lab, the materials, references. Two trips over six months. The result is better than what I was quoted at home, and I added four nights in Berat on the second trip."
James H.
James H.
"NHS told me to budget £20k+ and wait nine months. Did it in Albania across two trips for under £8k including flights and hotels. The follow-up via WhatsApp is better than I get from my GP at home."
Brikena L.

"I fly back every summer to see my family. Now I plan one week of it around the dentist. Same quality I would get in New York, a fraction of the cost, and I am home anyway."
Real questions

Everything you would ask if you trusted us already.

Is it actually safe? +

Yes - when the clinic is properly vetted. The five clinics on this page run EU Class B sterilization, use the same implant brands as Swiss and German practices, and carry malpractice insurance. We do not list clinics that fail our audit.

What if something goes wrong after I go home? +

Warranty work is honoured at any of our partner clinics, free. You fly back, the work gets redone. For urgent issues, you have a WhatsApp line to the surgeon for 12 months after treatment - most problems are diagnosed remotely.

Do I need a visa? +

Citizens of the EU, Schengen, UK, US, Canada, Australia and most Balkan countries can enter Albania visa-free for up to 90 days. See our Plan your trip page for the full list.

How long do I need to stay? +

It depends on the work. A few crowns or veneers: 4-5 days. Implants typically need two trips (3 days for placement, 3 days for the crown 3-4 months later). Full-mouth restorations: 7-10 days across two trips. Your written quote will tell you exactly.

What about follow-up appointments? +

Most are done via WhatsApp video with the surgeon who treated you. If something genuinely needs hands-on work, the second trip is included in your treatment plan from the start.

Can I combine treatment with a holiday? +

Most patients do. See section 9 above for a typical 10-day itinerary: treatment in Tirana, then recovery on the Riviera or in UNESCO Berat. We can route you to a rental car for the recovery week.

What language is the consultation in? +

English and German are standard across all partner clinics. Italian, Greek and Albanian (for diaspora) are confirmed in writing for your specific appointment before you fly.

How do I pay? +

A small deposit at booking (typically 10-20%) to lock the appointment. The balance in cash, EUR, or by card at the clinic. Some clinics accept bank transfer in advance. No payment to Visit Albania - we are not in the money loop.

Are the materials the same brands my dentist uses at home? +

For implants: Straumann (Swiss), Nobel Biocare (Swedish/US), BioHorizons (US). For ceramics: Ivoclar Vivadent. These are the same brands used in Swiss, German, and UK practices. Every quote names the exact brand for your case.

What about pain management? +

Modern local anaesthesia is the default. Conscious sedation is available at every partner clinic for anxious patients (request when booking). General anaesthesia is offered at clinics with hospital partnerships for complex full-mouth cases.

Visit Albania difference

Don't fly home with a sore jaw. Fly home with a tan.

Most patients combine treatment with a week on the Riviera or in the Albanian Alps. Here is how it usually breaks down.

10-day suggested itinerary

Treatment week + recovery on the coast.

Days 1-3 · Tirana

Treatment and immediate follow-ups. Stay in a boutique hotel near the clinic so post-op walks are easy.

Days 4-7 · Berat or Saranda

Recovery away from the chair. UNESCO-listed Berat for soft food and slow walks; Saranda if you want the sea air.

Days 8-10 · Final fitting + flight

Back to Tirana for the final fitting and the all-clear before you fly home.

Getting around

Self-drive once your treatment is done. Pick up the car in Tirana on day 4.

Important

Important - please read before contacting a clinic

Visit Albania is an information directory, not a healthcare provider. We publish editorial content about dental tourism in Albania and forward enquiries to independent clinics. We do not provide, supervise, insure, or endorse any medical or dental service. The clinics listed are independent businesses; their dentists, hygienists, lab partners, and facilities are not employees or agents of Visit Albania.

Referral disclosure. Visit Albania may receive a referral fee, commission, or other compensation from clinics when an enquiry leads to a booked treatment. This commercial relationship does not change the price you pay the clinic, and it does not imply medical endorsement.

Accuracy. Prices, materials, warranty terms, certifications, and clinical practices change. Information on this page may be incomplete or out of date. Verify everything directly with the clinic - in writing - before you travel or pay a deposit.

Your responsibility. Choosing a clinic, accepting a treatment plan, and following aftercare are your decisions. We strongly recommend you consult your regular dentist before any cross-border treatment and seek local emergency care for urgent problems - Visit Albania cannot intervene in clinical situations.

No liability. Visit Albania accepts no liability for medical complications, unsatisfactory results, financial loss, travel disruption, or any other consequence arising from your engagement with a clinic. Any contract for treatment is between you and the clinic and is governed by Albanian law. Disputes must be resolved between the patient and the clinic; Visit Albania is not a mediator, guarantor, or party to that contract.

Your data. When you submit an enquiry we forward your details to one clinic per request. We do not add you to marketing lists without your explicit opt-in. You can request deletion of your enquiry data at any time by emailing info@visitalbania.al.
