The Price of Dental Porcelain Crowns
Porcelain Dental Crowns are a standard treatment done in most Dental Clinics to restore teeth that are compromised. It makes sense to understand what are crowns and why get them done before you consider pricing. This will help you make a better decision and not just based on prices. Because each patient has a different situation.
Have you got a chipped or discolored tooth? Then you may think about getting a dental crown! A crown is like a cap that fits over your tooth. It makes your tooth look better and stronger too. It sort of makes your tooth whole again. Like a new tooth. Dental Crowns can be made from different materials like porcelain or metal.
Why Get a Crown? Here are some reasons you may want to consider.
Appearance : Ugly or badly discoloured teeth that don’t look good and spoil your Smile.
Chew Better: Crowns make weak teeth strong again especially if the old big filling keeps breaking and dropping.
Last Long: Crowns can stay good for up to 15 years. They preserve teeth and don’t let it crumble especially after a root canal treatment. Teeth get brittle after root canal treatment and are prone to fracture.
You'll need two visits to your Dentist near you to get a crown. First, we get your tooth ready and take an impression or mold. Then, we send it to the lab to make the crown which we will seal to your existing tooth on your second visit.
Cost:
Crown costs can vary. Most people pay between RM 1000 to RM2,500 for a dental crown. The prices depends on the material, difficulty level and the experience of the dentist. Porcelain crowns cost more, mixed porcelain to metal less and pure metal crowns are the cheapest.
Porcelain Crowns : RM 2000 to RM 2500
Porcelain fused to Metal : RM 1500 to RM 2000
Metal Crowns : RM 1300 to 1500
Porcelain Crowns are the best options if you can afford it as there is no metal visible. And they are most natural coloured.
