Describe your situation in the box below: one of our consultants calls you back, listens to your case in real time and suggests the best solution among the partner clinics. You continue only if you want to.
You cannot walk into a clinic in Tirana to inspect it before you commit. So the least a coordinator can do is name the implant system, name where the prosthetic work is made, and name the diagnostic equipment — and say plainly where a clinic has not published something, rather than filling the gap with a comfortable sentence. Everything on this page comes from what each clinic states about itself. Your written quote names the exact system and material for your own case; this page is what lets you read that quote knowing what the words mean.
Straumann® is the system we recommend, whichever clinic your case goes to. It is the most extensively documented implant line in the world, and that documentation is what protects you years from now, in another country, if a component ever has to be matched or replaced. Ask for it by name — and make sure the quote you sign says it.
| Clinic | Implant system | Where the prosthetics are made | Diagnostics on site | Team & scale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Creadent | MegaGen implant system | In-house CAD/CAM laboratory in the same building; zirconia crowns, bridges and prosthetics produced on site; ten specialised technicians | Latest-generation CBCT; milling unit and 3D printing for zirconia work | 3 resident + 4 collaborating doctors, 5 assistants, 10 lab technicians; founded 2006, family practice since 1998 |
| DentX | Straumann® · also the MegaGen AnyRidge line | No in-house laboratory — prosthetic work is made externally | Panoramic X-ray | Implantology led by Dr Gjergj Dilo, the practice's senior implantologist; places implants by the Flapless method — without incision or sutures |
Where a cell says not published, the clinic has not stated it publicly and we will not invent it. Ask us and we confirm it in writing before you commit to anything — and this page is updated when we can state it here too.
An implant is not one object but three: a titanium screw placed in the bone, an abutment that connects it, and the crown or bridge on top. Each part can be a different brand and a different price, and a quote that names none of them is telling you nothing.
Why the system's name matters years later. If a component ever loosens, fractures or needs replacing — a decade after the surgery, in a different country — a dentist has to source the matching part. Documented systems from established manufacturers keep their component lines available and identifiable; an unnamed implant can be genuinely difficult to match later. This is the single most practical reason to insist the system is written down, and to keep the implant passport the clinic gives you.
Zirconia is a category, not a specification. A zirconia crown can be monolithic — milled from one solid block, stronger, usually chosen for the back of the mouth where the bite loads hardest — or layered, with ceramic built over a zirconia core for more translucency at the front. Both are legitimate; they suit different teeth. The question worth asking is not "is it zirconia" but which of the two, and for which teeth.
Veneers divide the same way: composite, built directly onto the tooth in a single visit, versus porcelain or ceramic, made in a laboratory and bonded on. Clear aligners likewise — Invisalign is one manufacturer among several, and Creadent states it works with it.
This matters more for a travelling patient than for a local one. When the laboratory is in the same building as the chair, a prosthesis can be designed, tried in, adjusted and corrected during the same stay. When the work goes out to an external laboratory, each correction adds a round trip that a patient who flies home cannot easily make.
Creadent runs an in-house CAD/CAM laboratory in the same building as the surgery, with ten specialised technicians — design, try-in and correction happen in one place, often inside the same stay. DentX has no in-house laboratory: its prosthetic work is made externally, which is worth knowing when you plan how many days you stay.
Your written quote must name the implant system and the crown material. If a quote you receive — from us or from anyone else — says only "implant" and "crown", ask what they are before you sign. A clinic that is willing to put the names in writing is telling you something real about how it works. That is the same principle as the guaranteed written price: the commitment is only worth what it names.
Treatment is performed by the licensed partner clinic and its doctors. Albanian Dental Clinic coordinates the case, the trip and the follow-up — we do not perform any medical act, and we do not supply materials.
