Smile Makeover in Albania

Not sure whether you need veneers, crowns, implants or a combination? Start with the result you want, and receive a preliminary clinic review and personalised quotation before you decide whether to travel.

Premium Dentravel coordinates the submission of your information to the treating clinic and helps organise the agreed travel arrangements and communication around your journey.

BEFORE & AFTER

Before & After

Individual results vary. Suitability and outcomes depend on each patient’s clinical circumstances.

A Smile Makeover Is Not One Treatment

It is a personalised dental plan that may combine cosmetic and restorative procedures. Two patients who want a similar-looking result may need completely different care because their teeth, gums, bite and existing dental work are different.

Treatment Options - What Is The Difference?

Treatment	May help with	Important distinction	Action
Veneers	Shape, colour and proportion of suitable front teeth	Mainly cover the visible front surface	View veneers
Crowns	Damaged or heavily restored teeth	Cover more of the tooth and generally require greater preparation	View crowns
Bonding	Minor chips, edges and selected gaps	Resin-based and often more conservative	Ask about options
Whitening	Colour of natural teeth	Does not whiten crowns, veneers or fillings	Ask about options
Implants	Missing teeth	Support a crown, bridge or other restoration where appropriate; involves a surgical/healing pathway	View implants
Orthodontics	Tooth position and selected bite concerns	Moves teeth rather than disguising their position	Ask about options

Whitening note: Whitening changes the shade of natural teeth but does not whiten crowns, veneers, implants or existing fillings.

The treating dentist should explain appropriate alternatives and the reasons for recommending each procedure, including preparation and long-term maintenance.

What May Happen To My Natural Teeth?

The amount of tooth preparation depends on the treatment selected. Veneers may require some preparation, crowns generally cover more of the tooth, and bonding may be more conservative in suitable cases.

Will All My Visible Teeth Be Treated?

No. The number and type of teeth included should depend on the clinical condition, smile line, desired shade and how treated teeth will blend with untreated teeth.

Could Orthodontics Be More Appropriate?

In some cases, moving the teeth may be more appropriate than disguising their position with restorations. Suitable alternatives should be discussed before irreversible dental work is agreed.

Where natural tooth structure is removed, the change is irreversible. The dentist should explain the reason for the preparation, suitable alternatives and long-term maintenance before treatment is agreed.

Your Journey, Diagnostics & Timing

Step	Stage	What it means
1	Send your smile information	Photos, available X-rays and the result you would like to achieve.
2	Receive a preliminary clinic review and quotation	The clinic reviews the information available remotely.
3	Confirm the proposed journey and travel arrangements	Review the travel and support services included in your quotation.
4	Attend an in-person examination and smile-planning appointment	The dentist confirms the final clinical plan after examination and diagnostics.
5	Complete the agreed treatment stages	Depending on the plan, this may involve preparation, temporary restorations, laboratory work, implant treatment, try-in appointments and final fitting.
6	Return home with aftercare coordination	Confirm whom to contact for follow-up after you return home.

What May Be Checked at the Clinic?

Depending on the case, the in-person assessment may involve clinical examination, X-rays or CBCT where indicated, gum assessment, bite evaluation, scans or impressions, photographs, review of old dental work and discussion of grinding/clenching. Implant-inclusive plans may require additional diagnostics.

Some treatment plans may require more than one trip. Implant treatment in particular often includes healing periods between surgical and final-restoration stages

Price, Package & What May Be Separate

Your personalised quotation, clearly explained

The quotation should distinguish what is included from what may be charged separately.

INCLUDED IN YOUR QUOTATION	MAY BE CHARGED SEPARATELY
Confirmed procedures and quantities	Additional diagnostics not included in the original quote
Confirmed materials / laboratory stages	Additional care identified after in-person examination
Included accommodation / nights	Additional nights or companion expenses
Included airport/local transfers	Local dental care after returning home
Coordinator / agreed support	Return travel if required
Flights only if explicitly included	Flights where excluded from the package

If the final in-person findings change the preliminary proposal, the dentist should explain the revised recommendations and any change in cost before additional work is agreed.

Cosmetic Smile Makeover Vs Full Mouth Rehabilitation

A cosmetic Smile Makeover mainly focuses on the appearance of visible teeth. More complex cases involving missing teeth, extensive damage, bite problems or multiple implants may require a broader Full Mouth Rehabilitation plan.

Risks, Long-term Care & Aftercare

Important Things to Consider

Depending on the procedures involved, considerations may include sensitivity, discomfort, gum irritation, chipping or debonding, possible need for root canal care, implant complications, healing time, bite adjustments, temporary restorations, changes to the preliminary proposal after diagnostics, and future repair or replacement costs.

Treatment-specific risks and alternatives should be explained by the treating dentist before consent.

Your Aftercare Contact Pathway

1	Contact Premium Dentravel.
2	Provide photographs and a description of the concern.
3	Information is shared through the agreed pathway with the treating clinic.
4	The clinic advises on the appropriate next step.
5	Urgent symptoms may require immediate local dental or medical assessment.

Long-Term Care

Daily oral hygiene, regular dental reviews, professional cleaning and management of grinding/clenching remain important. Dental restorations are not expected to last forever and may require maintenance, repair or replacement over time.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a Smile Makeover in Albania cost?

The cost depends on the procedures, number of teeth, materials, diagnostics and travel/support elements. Request a personalised quotation showing the proposed treatment, agreed inclusions and any separate costs.

Is a Smile Makeover completed in one trip?

Not always. Implant-inclusive or complex restorative plans may require more than one visit.

Will I have temporary teeth during treatment?

Temporary restorations may be used in some plans, depending on the procedures and clinic workflow.

Can I bring someone with me?

Yes, but any additional accommodation, transfers or travel costs for a companion should be quoted separately.

Are flights included?

The written quotation must state clearly whether flights are included or excluded.

What if the final plan is different from the preliminary quote?

The dentist should explain the findings, revised recommendations and any change in cost before additional treatment is agreed.

Do I have to accept treatment after the examination?

No. The clinical findings and available options should be explained before you decide whether to proceed.

Can all my teeth be made the same shade?

Natural teeth and restorations respond differently to whitening, so shade planning should consider your whole smile.

How long will the results last?

Longevity depends on the procedures and materials used, oral health, bite, grinding habits, hygiene and ongoing care.

What happens if I am not suitable?

The clinic may recommend another option, further care first, or that you do not proceed. A preliminary enquiry does not oblige you to have treatment.

Is a Smile Makeover the same as a 'Hollywood Smile'?

“Hollywood Smile” is a marketing term rather than one specific clinical procedure. A smile plan should be based on the condition of your teeth, gums and bite, rather than a fixed number of crowns or veneers.
