Why so many patients from London choose Tirana

A single implant + crown costs £2,000-3,500 in a UK private dental practice. In Tirana, with the same brand of implant and zirconia crown, £570-820. The 65-75% saving isn't a discount — it's a different cost economy (lower property, labour, regulatory overhead). For patients in London considering an extended prosthetic plan (more than 2-3 implants, All-on-4), travelling to Tirana makes economic sense even including flights and hotel.

Getting to Tirana from London

The reference airport for travellers from London is Stansted STN / Luton LTN, accessible from the city centre in roughly 60 minutes by road. From there, the flight to Tirana International Airport (TIA) takes 195 minutes. Main carriers on this route are Wizz Air, Ryanair, easyJet, with British Airways operating selected scheduled services.

The 5 non-negotiable questions before booking

  1. Who specifically will be the surgeon / dentist responsible? What is their registration number on the Albanian Ministry of Health register?
  2. What brand of materials / implants / prostheses will you use? Can I see the lot certificate and CE mark before treatment?
  3. What does the written guarantee cover — duration, conditions, document in English?
  4. Can I see 5 before/after cases at 12 months by the specific surgeon (not generic clinic photos)?
  5. What's the final, fixed-price total in GBP or EUR? What extras might appear at checkout?
