How much does a dental crown cost?
Q.
My new dentist has advised me to have root canal treatment on a pre-molar tooth followed by a crown in a few months. He said that the crown would be either silver or gold which I am not happy about as I feel cosmetically it will be quite ugly (I already have a gold crown which I’m very unhappy about). Can I get a white crown on the NHS under Band 3, or can you give me an idea what it will cost privately?

Thanks for your reply. Is that the cost for private dental treatment? I’ve just found some costs on the NHS website so it appears I could get a white crown ……?
Crowns including any pin or post aids to retention:
– full or three-quarter crown cast in alloys containing not less than 33⅓% fine gold or platinum or palladium
– full or jacket crown cast in alloys containing stainless steel or cobalt chromium or nickel chromium
– crown in porcelain, synthetic resin and other non-metallic crowns
– full or jacket crowns in alloys containing not less than 33⅓% fine gold or platinum or palladium, or alloys containing stainless steel or cobalt chromium or nickel chromium, with thermally bonded porcelain
– jacket crown thermally bonded to wrought platinum coping
– prefabricated full or jacket crown, including any pin or post retention
I was recently quoted for 5 dental crowns on my upper front teeth and a bridge between two of the teeth. When they went to install the crowns it turned out they made one big bridge. Is this something that is normally done? I am concerned Im not getting what I paid for because I paid for 5 individual crowns?
Generally you pay per unit- whether that is for single crowns or for the false parts of a bridge. It sounds as though your dentist has been completely fair
