Los Angeles Quotes $4,000–$6,000 Per Tooth.
We Do It for a Fraction.

A single dental implant in Los Angeles costs $4,000–$6,000 — before the crown. At Alba Med Health in Tirana, a complete implant and crown starts from $890, using the same Straumann and Nobel Biocare systems your Chicago dentist would use. Los Angeles residents are among the most price-aware patients in the world, which is why more are flying to Albania. Same materials. Same clinical standards. 75% less.

"Most patients extend their stay by a day."

Tirana is a vibrant, modern, safe European capital. From Los Angeles, it's roughly a 12-hour flight via a European hub — and you come home with a tooth that would've cost $5,000+ back home.

Patient Stories

In Their Own Words

"I needed three implants and the Los Angeles quotes were insane — $15,000+. Alba Med Health gave me all three for under $3,000. The implants are Straumann, same as my dentist here would use. I'm six months post-op and everything is perfect."
Michael S.
Silver Lake, CA
"The whole experience was incredibly smooth. Ardit handled all the logistics, the clinic was spotless, and Dr. Dervishi was so thorough. My implant crown looks completely natural. Saved nearly $5,000 and got a little vacation in the Balkans too."
Lisa M.
Pasadena, CA
"I was nervous about dental work abroad, but the team put me at ease from day one. The CBCT scan, the digital planning — everything was explained clearly. The implant integrated perfectly. Would recommend Alba Med Health to any Los Angeles resident."
Robert K.
Long Beach, CA
"Best decision I ever made."
Common Questions

Everything You
Want to Know

Most patients need 2 trips: the first for implant placement (2–4 days in Tirana), and the second — 3 to 6 months later — for the crown fitting (2–3 days). We coordinate everything remotely between visits, including remote check-ins and X-ray reviews.
We use Straumann, Nobel Biocare, and Dentsply Sirona — the same Swiss and European implant systems used in leading US practices. You choose your preferred brand or we advise based on your bone density and budget.
No. US passport holders do not need a visa to enter Albania. Entry is visa-free for up to 1 year.
Typically around 10 hours with one connection via a European hub such as London, Amsterdam, or Rome. Flights to Tirana (TIA) are available from MIA and MIA.
We provide a 12-month implant guarantee and remote follow-up via WhatsApp. In the rare event a revision is needed, we coordinate directly with you and cover revision costs that fall within our guarantee terms.
Yes. If your CBCT scan shows insufficient bone density, we perform a bone graft — either at the same time as implant placement or as a separate preparatory stage. Bone grafting starts from $350.
Yes. Our lead implantologist holds a DDS from the University of Tirana, is a Straumann Authorised Surgeon, and an ITI (International Team for Implantology) member. All specialists are licensed with the Albanian Order of Dentists and hold EU-aligned qualifications.
The titanium implant post is designed to last a lifetime with proper care. The crown may need replacement after 15–20 years of normal wear. Zirconia crowns are the most durable option.
