What is the average cost of crowns?
The average cost of crowns varies, with the type of crown playing the most significant factor in determining its price. For example, all ceramic or porcelain crowns tend to cost more than other types of crowns because they are more time-consuming and require greater skill to be applied correctly. Additionally, because all porcelain crowns provide the most natural appearance, they typically cost more than porcelain fused to metal or all metal crowns. Another factor is whether the crown is to be used in another type of procedure as in dental implants or implant-supported dental work, as part of a cosmetic dentistry restoration procedure. Your dentist may be able to provide you information about cosmetic dentistry financing to make the dental crown procedure more affordable for patients.
