Case Summary

Last Full Mouth X-Ray: December 11, 2008
Last Cleaning: December 11, 2008
Case Description
My wife received a quote this AM for $3000 to install two crowns on molars, one has existing amalgam fillings, the other , a crown, has a "hole". Fortunately, there is no pain.

Without a complete examination, I understand there is perhaps no way to estimate a cost, but is $1500 the "going rate" for a crown? I was looking for somethig less than half that.

When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
  • Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
  • Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description, special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
  • Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
  • Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors. Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Cost Estimate: $ No Estimate at this time. Additional information required.
Cost for procedures vary by area. By your description, I would guess that Build-Ups (removal of existing filling, decay, hole and placing filling to create a retentive anatomical crown) were part of this estimate. We would be happy to provide a second consultation/estimate. Our phone number is 619-427-2646.
