Costs & Pricing FAQs

Transparent answers to your questions about dental treatment costs and payment options in Albania.

Albania has a significantly lower cost of living compared to Western Europe and the USA. This means lower operational costs for our clinic:
  • Lower rent and utilities for clinic space
  • Lower labor costs (though our dentists are equally qualified)
  • Lower administrative overhead
  • No insurance bureaucracy adding to costs

We use the same premium materials (Nobel Biocare, Straumann implants) and same technology (3D CT scanners, CAD/CAM) as Western clinics. The quality is identical - only the price is different.

Absolutely not. We believe in complete transparency. Your quoted price includes:
  • Free consultation and examination
  • Panoramic X-rays and CT scan (if needed)
  • All procedures listed in your treatment plan
  • All materials and laboratory work
  • Post-operative medications
  • Airport transfers
  • Follow-up appointments during your stay

If additional work is discovered during consultation (e.g., extractions needed before implants), we'll quote this separately and upfront before any work begins. You always know the cost before you agree to proceed.

We accept multiple payment methods for your convenience:
  • Credit/Debit Cards: Visa, Mastercard, American Express
  • Cash: Euros, US Dollars, or Albanian Lek
  • Bank Transfer: SWIFT or SEPA for international transfers
  • Digital Payments: PayPal, Wise, and others on request

All prices are quoted in Euros (EUR) for easy comparison. Card payments may incur a small foreign transaction fee from your bank (typically 1-3%).

Yes! We offer flexible payment options:
  • Standard Split: 50% deposit to book, 50% on treatment day
  • Phase Payments: For implants, pay for surgery on Visit 1 and prosthetics on Visit 2
  • Custom Plans: Extended payment arrangements for large treatments

There are no interest charges or additional fees for these payment plans. Contact us to discuss an arrangement that works for your budget.

To be completely transparent, here's what you'll need to arrange and pay for separately:
  • Flights to and from Albania
  • Accommodation (hotels, Airbnb)
  • Travel insurance
  • Food and personal expenses during your stay
  • Additional treatments not quoted (e.g., if more work is needed)

Even with flights and hotel, most patients save thousands of euros compared to treatment at home.

  • Consultation only: No deposit required
  • Simple treatments: Usually no deposit
  • Implant treatments: 20-30% deposit to reserve your appointment slot
  • Large treatments: Custom deposit arrangements

Deposits can be paid via bank transfer or credit card. If you need to cancel, we offer free cancellation up to 14 days before your appointment with full refund.

Many patients receive partial reimbursement from their insurance. We provide:
  • Detailed itemized invoices with procedure codes
  • Treatment records and clinical notes
  • X-rays and diagnostic images
  • Material certificates (implant brands, batch numbers)
  • Pre-authorization letters on request

Tip: Check with your insurance provider before traveling to understand their policy on overseas dental treatment. Some plans cover a percentage of "usual and customary" fees.

Here are typical savings for common treatments:
Treatment Albania UK/USA Savings
All-on-4 (per arch) €5,240 €15,000-25,000 65-79%
Single Implant + Crown €500-700 €2,000-4,000 75-83%
Porcelain Veneer (each) €200-250 €800-1,500 75-83%

Even after flights (EUR 50-150) and accommodation (EUR 40-80/night), you'll typically save thousands of euros.

Your written quote is honored as long as your dental situation matches what we assessed from your X-rays/photos. The only scenarios where price might change:
  • Additional work needed (e.g., unexpected extractions) - always quoted and approved first
  • You request upgrades (e.g., premium zirconia instead of standard)
  • Treatment plan changes at your request

We never pressure patients or surprise them with unexpected costs. Any changes are discussed and agreed before proceeding.

We can provide a preliminary estimate remotely based on:
  • Photos of your teeth (smile, bite, problem areas)
  • Any existing X-rays or CT scans
  • Description of your dental concerns and goals

Send these via WhatsApp or email, and we'll provide a free estimate within 24-48 hours. The final treatment plan and pricing is confirmed after your in-person examination.
