Metal Braces: Proven Results, Expert Care, at KissDent Tirana
Metal braces have been the global standard in orthodontic treatment for decades. Not because there has been nothing better, but because for many patients and many clinical situations, they remain the most effective tool available. At KissDent in Tirana, we fit traditional braces as part of a fully digital treatment workflow, combining a method with a long track record with the planning precision that modern technology allows.
Our orthodontic team has postgraduate training across Europe and the United States. Every treatment plan begins with a digital scan and a detailed analysis of your bite, jaw position, and tooth alignment. You see the planned outcome before treatment begins, and we monitor progress at every adjustment appointment to make sure treatment is moving exactly as intended.
Who Are Metal Braces For?
Metal braces work for a wide range of orthodontic cases, from mild crowding to complex bite corrections that clear aligners are not well suited to handle.
They are particularly well suited to patients who want a cost-effective solution with predictable results, younger patients and teenagers for whom compliance with removable aligners can be a challenge, and adults with more complex bite issues including overbite, underbite, crossbite, or significant crowding that requires precise force control throughout treatment.
If you have been told by another clinic that your case is too complex for aligners, metal braces may be exactly the right solution. We assess every patient individually and recommend the approach that gives the best clinical outcome for your specific situation, not the one that is most convenient to provide.

Digital Planning at KissDent
Traditional braces do not mean a traditional planning process. At KissDent, every orthodontic case begins with digital impressions taken using our in-house scanner, eliminating the need for uncomfortable physical moulds.
We use this data to analyse your bite in three dimensions, assess the position of every tooth, and build a treatment plan that accounts for your jaw relationship and facial proportions, not just the alignment of your teeth in isolation.
This planning approach means we can give you a realistic picture of your expected outcome at the start of treatment, with a clear timeline and a breakdown of what each stage of treatment involves. There are no vague estimates. You know what you are committing to before you commit.
Our trusted brands:
How Metal Braces Work
Brackets are bonded directly to the surface of each tooth. A wire runs through each bracket and is held in place with small elastic ties. As treatment progresses, the wire is adjusted at regular appointments to apply gentle, continuous pressure that moves the teeth gradually into their correct positions.
The process is precise and controlled. Unlike removable aligners, metal braces are working around the clock without depending on the patient to wear them consistently. For cases requiring significant tooth movement or bite correction, this continuous force application produces more reliable results.
At KissDent, brackets and wires are sourced from certified manufacturers. Every component used in your treatment is documented in your clinical record.
Treatment Duration and Appointments
Metal brace treatment at KissDent typically runs between twelve and twenty-four months depending on the complexity of your case. Adjustment appointments are scheduled every four to eight weeks. At each appointment, the wire is changed or adjusted and we assess progress against the original treatment plan.
For patients travelling from abroad, we can discuss a modified appointment schedule that reduces the number of visits required. Between appointments, we are available for any questions or concerns about your treatment progress.
Retainers and Long-Term Stability
Straightening teeth is only half the work. Once braces are removed, teeth have a natural tendency to shift back toward their original positions. This is why retention is as important as the active phase of treatment.
At KissDent, every patient receives a retention plan at the end of their orthodontic treatment.
This typically involves a fixed retainer bonded to the back of the front teeth, a removable retainer worn at night, or both. We provide a warranty on tooth positioning provided the patient wears their retainer as instructed and attends a follow-up appointment three to six months after braces are removed.
Retention is not optional. It is the part of treatment that protects the result you have invested months in achieving.

The Journey
Once your treatment is confirmed, we help organize your visit. From airport pickup to your first clinic appointment, our team will guide you and make everything feel easy.
Treatment
Your treatment begins with a full in-clinic examination and final smile planning. Our dentists then work carefully to create a healthy, natural-looking smile you can feel confident about.
Step by Step: From First Consultation to Final Straight Smile
Treatment begins with a free consultation including digital X-rays and a 3D scan of your teeth. No physical moulds, no guesswork. Our orthodontist builds a written treatment plan with a full cost breakdown and shows you the expected outcome before a single bracket is placed.
At your fitting appointment, brackets are bonded to each tooth and the wire is fitted in one to two hours with no drilling and no anaesthesia required. From there, you return every four to eight weeks for adjustment appointments where the wire is tightened and progress is checked against the original plan.
Once your teeth reach their final positions, the braces are removed and your teeth are cleaned and polished. Retainers are fitted the same day, both fixed and removable, to hold your results long term. Retention is included in your treatment plan from the start.
Trusted by patients from all over the world, KissDent is committed to making every journey to a smile as comfortable, clear, and worthwhile as possible.
Sono stato ospite presso la clinica Kissdent di Tirana la scorsa settimana per effettuare degli impianti. Sono rimasto a dir poco sorpreso per la cortesia, la disponibilità, la gentilezza e la professionalità dei medici e di tutto il personale dipendente. Sono stato accolto all’aeroporto dal proprietario della clinica e dall’interprete con molta simpatia e familiarità. Prima di raggiungere la clinica avevo qualche dubbio ma, mi sono ricreduto da subito, quando ho assaporato la tendenza positiva che anima gli operatori (tutti, nessuno escluso). Ho trovato due dottoresse molto pazienti che mi hanno fatto sentire a mio agio e mi hanno ben consigliato sui lavori da eseguire. L’interprete straordinaria, non mi ha mai abbandonato (in caso di difficoltà durante il soggiorno potevo raggiungerla telefonicamente ricevendo sempre grande disponibilità e competenza). Mi sono trovato davvero molto bene. Tornerò volentieri a Gennaio per continuare le cure col piacere di incontrare ciascuno/a di loro.
Siamo stati in questa clinica x fare gli impianti, appena arrivati avevamo molti dubbi e ansia non conoscendo nessuno non sapevamo a chi ci stessimo affidando, poi tutto è svanito appena abbiamo conosciuto Berti, Vera, Alba, Renata e il resto dello staff tutti molto gentili disponibili e professionali, non credevamo che in meno di una settimana avremmo fatto metà del lavoro quando in Italia ci sarebbero voluti anni. Siamo rimasti molto contenti per il lavoro svolto, ritorneremo tra pochi mesi per completare il lavoro. Grazie infinitamente
Compliments to the entire team. Very professional, respect your time and plan around your need. They pick you up from the airport and drop you off as well. Came here with my family and my dad decide to do some treatment as well. In 4 days between me and my dad we have done 7 implants. Doctor is so sweet and you wont feel any pain at all. Same goes for extraction and fillings. The whole team is amazing. Located in the heart of the city of Tirana, very clean and like I said NO PAIN AT ALL. Thanks again everyone. See you soon
I went to Kissdent to see about old crowns (30 years old) and recent work that I had done in the EU that I was not happy with. With a panoramic xray (and visual aesthetic check) it was clear what needed to be done.
Fast-forward 2 weeks and I write now, with 9 beautiful new zirconium crowns. They are mostly back molars but one that I worried about most was my left front tooth. I have a difficult tooth colour to match.
Kissdent staff have done a wonderful job. The clinic and lab are located on the same premises so they are able to adjust the tooth colour and overall bite precisely.
All excellent quality work and material for a very reasonable price. Unbeatable in Europe and North America.
Kissdent clinic is pristine in terms of cleanliness, ambient and warm in atmosphere….but the best is the staff and the relief you feel knowing that you are in good hands. They are very professional and communicative (in english and several other languages). They take the time and do not rush you through.
They can do any form of dentistry…from cosmetics to implants and orthodontics but they do not try to sell you more services than you need. They respect strong and healthy teeth.
Thank you all very much for your great service and for my new smile!!!
Ich bin zum dritten Mal in der Praxis Kiss Dent. Ich bin absolut begeistert!
Ich hab ein Implantat am Frontzahn bekommen. Das war vor einem halben Jahr, die Behandlung war sehr sanft, sehr einfühlsam und ist fantastisch verheilt. Es hat nicht einen Moment wehgetan und ich hab mich jederzeit gut aufgehoben gefühlt.
Die Praxis ist top ausgestattet und die Mitarbeiterin sind alle sehr nett. Die Termine sind pünktlich, es gibt keine Wartezeit und die Arbeit ist absolut akkurat.
Jetzt hat man mir im dortigen Labor zwei Kronen angefertigt, die absolut natürlich und passgenau gearbeitet sind. Wirklich fantastische Arbeit. Die größte Herausforderung, Kronen im Frontbereich, haben die Ärztin und das angeschlossene Labor zu meiner vollsten Begeisterung gemeistert!
Ich kann diese Klinik nur allen sehr ans Herz legen.
Die Reise lohnt sich und ich komme auf jeden Fall wieder.

Frequently Asked Questions
For many cases yes, and for some cases they are the better clinical choice. Metal braces apply continuous force that does not depend on patient compliance, making them more reliable for complex bite corrections, significant crowding, and younger patients who may not wear aligners consistently enough to achieve the planned result.
There is some discomfort in the first few days after fitting and after each adjustment appointment as the teeth begin to move. This is normal and typically manageable with standard pain relief. Most patients adjust quickly and find the discomfort minimal after the first few weeks.
Every four to eight weeks depending on your treatment plan. At each appointment we assess progress and make the necessary adjustments to keep treatment on track.
Yes. There is no age limit for orthodontic treatment with metal braces. Many adults choose them for their reliability and cost effectiveness, particularly for more complex cases where aligner treatment would be less predictable.
Contact us as soon as possible to arrange a repair appointment. A loose or detached bracket can affect the progress of your treatment if left unaddressed for too long. We will advise you on what to do in the meantime when you call.
Yes, always. Retainers are what keep your teeth in their new positions long term. We provide both fixed and removable options and include retention as part of your overall treatment plan from the start.
