Over the last decade, Albania has become one of the leading destinations for dental tourism in Europe. Thousands of patients from Italy, Germany, the UK, and Switzerland travel every year to cities like Durrës and Tirana for premium-quality dental care at prices up to 70% lower than Western Europe. At the heart of this trend is Tarja Dental, a modern clinic combining international expertise, digital technology, and hospitality. In this guide, we present the Top 10 Most Popular Dental Procedures requested by dental tourists in Albania, explaining why they’ve become so sought after — and how you can benefit too.

1. Dental Implants

Dental implants are the most popular procedure among foreign patients visiting Albania. They replace missing teeth permanently, using titanium roots integrated into the jawbone.

At Tarja Dental, we use MegaGen and Straumann implant systems, guaranteeing strength, aesthetics, and long-term results. Full-mouth restorations such as All-on-4 or All-on-6 implants are also among our most requested treatments.

Average cost in Albania: €400 – €700 per implant (vs. €1,500+ in Western Europe)

2. Full Smile Makeover

A smile makeover combines several aesthetic treatments to achieve the perfect harmony between teeth color, shape, and alignment.

Our specialists design a personalized digital plan using Digital Smile Design (DSD) to preview your final results before starting. Procedures may include crowns, veneers, whitening, and contouring — all performed under one roof.

Average duration: 4–5 days

3. Zirconia and E-max Crowns

Zirconia and E-max crowns are the gold standard for patients seeking durability and a natural look.

  • Zirconia crowns: ideal for back teeth, ultra-strong and metal-free

  • E-max crowns: perfect for front teeth, offering unmatched translucency

At Tarja Dental, crowns are digitally milled with CAD/CAM technology, ensuring precision, comfort, and aesthetics.

Our dentists offer both in-clinic laser whitening and custom take-home whitening kits, depending on your needs.

Average cost: €120 – €180

6. Dental Bridges

Bridges are an excellent solution for patients missing one or more teeth, especially when implants aren’t an option. They restore aesthetics and function using adjacent teeth as support.

Tarja Dental designs metal-free zirconia bridges, offering natural translucency, strength, and long-lasting comfort.

Average cost: €400 – €600 depending on the number of units.

7. Orthodontic Treatments (Braces & Aligners)

Straightening your teeth has never been easier or more affordable in Albania. At Tarja Dental, we offer:

  • Metal braces – classic and cost-effective

  • Ceramic braces – more discreet and aesthetic

  • Clear aligners – invisible and comfortable for adults

Our orthodontic team uses 3D scanning to create personalized plans for each patient.

Average cost: €900 – €1,800 depending on the system.

8. Root Canal Therapy (Endodontics)

To save natural teeth from extraction, root canal treatment remains one of the most essential and popular dental procedures.

Using microscopic endodontic technology and rotary systems, Tarja Dental ensures complete disinfection, minimal discomfort, and long-term preservation of your tooth.

Average cost: €70 – €100 per tooth

9. Gum Aesthetic Surgery (Gingival Contouring)

A healthy gum line is key to a beautiful smile. Many international patients choose Albania for laser gum reshaping or crown lengthening, procedures that correct uneven gums or excessive tissue around teeth.

Our specialists perform these procedures painlessly and safely with advanced laser systems.

Average cost: €100 – €200 per area

10. Full Mouth Reconstruction

For patients with multiple missing or damaged teeth, a full mouth reconstruction can restore complete function and aesthetics.

This complex procedure may involve implants, crowns, veneers, and bridges — designed through 3D diagnostics and executed with digital precision.

At Tarja Dental, full-mouth restoration is among our signature services, chosen by hundreds of dental tourists annually for its combination of affordability, technology, and artistry.
