Health - Beauty - Fitness Published date: 08/07/2024

A dental crown is sometimes called a cap because it covers or ‘caps’ a tooth, so none of the original tooth is visible. Many people have at least one or two crowns, so if we recommend this procedure, there is nothing to be concerned about, and treatment is often used in cosmetic dentistry. However, you probably want to know more about why a crown is necessary and what to expect. Here are some of the most important points to consider.

What is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a restoration that covers a natural tooth right down to the gum line. The crown is made to fit tightly over the tooth, sealing it completely around the margin, just below the gum line. Because the entire tooth is covered, it is protected from damage preventing infection and decay. A dental crown can be made from various materials depending on the location of the tooth, patient preferences, and budget.

When Do You Need a Dental Crown?

If you have a tooth that is uncomfortable or painful or is significantly decayed or damaged, you might need a crown to restore it. Typically, we will suggest a dental crown to restore a tooth that is infected and requires root canal therapy, or has suffered from decay or is damaged by trauma, such as a blow to the mouth or vehicle accident, resulting in a loss of much of its structure.

Crowns restore teeth that have lost too much of their original structure to be restored with a filling. If we were to try repairing the tooth with a filling, there would be a real risk that the tooth could crack or crumble away when you bite or chew or that it could become infected.

In cosmetic dentistry, we can use dental crowns to cover teeth that are worn, too small, or not an ideal shape but are not necessarily damaged or decayed. Dental crowns can also be used to restore dental implants

With Dental Insurance

Since Century Dental Center accepts most dental insurance plans, including Fidelis Care, MetroPlus Dental, ElderPlan, Medicaid, and AARP Medicare Advantage, dental crowns, which are considered restorative treatment, are usually covered in full or at least partially.

However, if you require a crown purely for cosmetic purposes, such as covering a tooth that is too small or not in great shape, you might have to cover the entire cost of the restoration.

*If your insurance covers crowns, you can upgrade to zirconia crowns for an additional $500.

Without Dental Insurance

If you do not have dental insurance and paying from your packet, the average cost of a tooth crown ranges from $500 to $2,000. The final cost is mainly influenced by the type of material used and the preparation required.

• Gold: from $600 to $2,000


• Porcelain: from $800 to $2,000


• Porcelain fused to metal: from $500 to $1,500
