The cost of a dental crown is based on a number of different things. First of all, it depends on the type of restoration you choose. There are several types of crowns: porcelain fused to gold, porcelain fused to semi-precious metal, porcelain fused to non-precious, full gold, full semi-precious metal and all porcelain. The laboratory costs for these different choices differ. Each type of tooth crown also has preparation requirements, advantages, disadvantages and limitations.

             The cost of a dental crown for a specially made highly aesthetic crown in some cosmetic cases can be almost twice the normal fee. Many high end cosmetic dental laboratories charge $280.00 per tooth for specially made cosmetic crowns and a dentist must increase his fee to help pay this increased cost. Additionally, many cosmetic dentists charge more for their services, especially for an all porcelain dental crown and a porcelain veneer.

             The cost of a dental crown depends on the area of the county that the crown is being made in. Dentists in large cities have higher overhead costs and pay staff and rents that often are double or triple of what rural dentists pay. However, urban dentists tend to see more patients and do more procedures.

             Ultimately, the cost of a dental crown ranges from about $850.00 and $2,400.00 per restoration. This is especially why it is very important for every patient to discuss treatment options with their dentist.
