Dental veneers in Albania: procedure, materials and prices
Veneers are thin ceramic shells bonded to the outer surface of the front teeth to correct their colour, shape and alignment. They are a cosmetic treatment, but one with real clinical implications: which is why at our clinic they always start from an examination and a smile design agreed with you.
- E.max ceramic or zirconia veneers
- A smile design agreed before any work begins
- Conservative enamel preparation
- A dedicated prosthodontics specialist
- Indicative prices per single veneer
- Free treatment plan before you travel
A veneer covers the visible surface of the tooth and is held in place by an adhesive cement. Unlike a crown, which wraps the tooth on every side, a veneer mainly involves the front face: that allows less tissue to be removed, where the starting conditions permit.
Veneers are not indicated in every situation. If a tooth is badly compromised, if there is extensive decay, or if the alignment is markedly off, the correct answer is a different one: a crown, or orthodontics before any cosmetic work. That is an assessment we make before proposing the treatment, not after.
How many veneers you need depends on how wide your smile is: usually 6, 8 or 10 units per arch, to get an even result across the teeth that show when you talk and smile. The design is worked out together, starting from photographs and, where useful, a simulation.
How it works, step by step.
- 01
1. Assessment and smile design
We start from photographs, a clinical examination and an analysis of your smile line. Together we settle how many veneers are needed, what shape and shade to give them, and what result is realistically achievable in your case.
- 02
2. Preparing the teeth
The enamel is prepared conservatively to create the space the veneer will occupy. How much tissue is involved depends on the starting position of the tooth and on the result agreed.
- 03
3. Impressions and temporaries
We take impressions, digital or conventional, and fit temporary veneers that protect the prepared teeth and let you preview the shape and proportions of the result.
- 04
4. Aesthetic try-in
The veneers made in the laboratory are tried in before final bonding: this is the moment to adjust shade, length or shape. Changes at this stage are normal and expected.
- 05
5. Final bonding
The veneers are adhesively bonded, the occlusion is checked and the margins are finished. You receive guidance on hygiene and on habits to avoid, such as biting hard objects or opening packaging with your teeth.
How many days and how many trips
Unlike implant work, veneers are normally completed in a single trip, because there is no osseointegration to wait for. The stay covers preparation, impressions, the aesthetic try-in and bonding, spread across several appointments.
How long it takes depends on the number of units and on the dental laboratory's schedule. We give you the appointment calendar before you travel, so you can book flights and accommodation precisely.
- Single trip
- 6–8 days in most cases
- Clinic appointments
- 3–4, spread across the stay
- Typical number of units
- 6–10 veneers per arch
- Flights
- direct from major European hubs
The materials we use
Full ceramic is the reference material for veneers because it reflects light much as natural enamel does. Zirconia is stronger but less translucent: the choice depends on the position of the tooth and on the aesthetic result you are after.
- E.max full ceramic for the front sections
- Zirconia where more strength is needed
- Digital impressions and smile design
- Adhesive bonding under field isolation
The doctor who treats you
Cosmetic and prosthetic work is led by Dr. Eva Baboci, a specialist in Dental Prosthodontics with over thirty years of clinical experience and a specialisation in Endodontics and Fixed Prosthodontics obtained in Cardiff, in the United Kingdom. She defines the smile design with you and oversees every stage of the work.
