For dental implants, plan for two short trips to Belgrade rather than one long one. The first visit is about 4 to 5 days: you arrive, have your scan and plan confirmed, the implants are placed, and within 72 hours you receive fixed temporary teeth and a final check before flying home. Then you heal for 6 to 12 months at home, living normally on the temporaries. The second visit is a light 3 to 4 days to fit your permanent teeth, with no surgery. If your treatment is veneers or a Hollywood Smile rather than implants, it is a single trip of about 7 days. A combined case without implants finishes in roughly 5 days. The exact schedule is confirmed on your consultation, but this is the real shape of it.
Visit one: about 4 to 5 days
- Day 1: a driver meets you at the airport and takes you to your apartment. The same day you have your 3D scan and confirm the treatment plan.
- Day 2: surgery day. The implants are placed under sedation.
- Day 3: your fixed temporary teeth are fitted, screwed on and not removable.
- Day 4 to 5: a final check, then you fly home with working teeth.
The healing gap: 6 to 12 months at home
Between the trips the implants fuse to your bone, which cannot be rushed and happens wherever you live, so you spend it at home, not in Belgrade. You wear your fixed temporaries the whole time and eat and speak normally. This is the part that makes implants a two-trip treatment, and the full reason it cannot be skipped is in teeth in a day: the real truth.
Visit two: about 3 to 4 days
The second trip is the easy one. No surgery, just fitting and adjusting your permanent teeth in metal-ceramic or titanium-zirconium, checking the bite and color, and a final polish. Most people treat it as a short, relaxed trip.
If it is veneers or a combined case
A Hollywood Smile is one trip of about 7 days: design and preparation early in the week, the lab builds your ceramics, and the fitting and polish happen before you fly. A combined case without implants usually finishes in about 5 days in a single trip. The day-by-day for the whole journey is on the how it works page.
Frequently asked questions
Can dental implants be done in one trip?
The surgery and your fixed temporary teeth are done in one trip. The permanent teeth need a second short trip after the implants heal, because bone fusion takes 6 to 12 months for everyone.
How long is the second trip?
Usually 3 to 4 days, with no surgery, just fitting the permanent teeth and final adjustments.
Do I need someone to travel with me?
Not required, but for surgical cases it is recommended, and the apartment is set up for two. Many patients bring a partner.
Can I fly straight after implant surgery?
Most people fly home a day or two after placement once the final check is done. Your surgeon confirms you are ready before you travel.
