The treatment price is only part of the total cost. To understand how much you really save, you need transparency on the quote and an honest estimate of travel expenses. A reputable clinic lets you calculate everything in advance, with no surprises.
A reliable quote is fixed, written, and detailed. It should specify: the implants and brand used, the temporary and final prostheses, any preparatory procedures (extractions, grafts), post-operative check-ups, and the guarantee. If anything is unclear, ask before you travel.
Beyond treatment, factor in: the flight (from Italy or the UK, direct flights from around €30-100 each way) and the hotel (4-star in Tirana, €40-60 per night). At Navident, airport transfer is included. For implant treatments, remember two trips may be needed.
The most frequent complaint in dental tourism is the inflated quote on arrival: a figure agreed by phone that doubles once you're there. This is exactly what a fixed, written quote prevents. Be wary of anyone who won't put the total cost in writing before the trip.
Example for a smile makeover: 10 E-max veneers (about €2,500-3,500) + flight (€60-120 return) + 6 nights' hotel (€250-360) = about €3,000-4,000 total. The same treatment in Italy would exceed €8,000. Even with travel and accommodation, the saving stays at 50-65%.
At Navident you receive a fixed, written quote after we review your panoramic X-ray, before you book the trip. The agreed price is the price you pay, barring changes to the plan that you request or approve. The initial consultation is always free.
With a reputable clinic, no: a fixed, written quote is the price you pay. It can only change if the in-clinic assessment reveals a need for additional procedures, which are explained and approved by you before proceeding.
Airport transfer is included. Flight and hotel are separate, but we help with advice and partner rates. Even including these costs, the overall saving remains significant.
