Dental crowns to rebuild teeth: A great investment in your smile, and health in Langley, BC
We know that now, more than ever the cost of dental treatment may be a significant concern for you and your family. While costs are certainly a factor when evaluating treatment options, we at Smile365 Dental in Langley, BC, feel it should not be the defining factor. We are happy to discuss payment options, and the value you get out of different treatment options. For instance, the cost of dental crowns varies considerably, due to considerations such as the type of material that Dr. Harpreet Aulakh uses to rebuild damaged teeth. All-porcelain crowns or crowns made from gold alloy may cost more upfront. But they are also “built to last.”
Dental crowns: a great investment in your smile
The total cost of treatment also depends on your special preferences and unique needs; for instance, root canal therapy often precedes crown placement when teeth are badly decayed or infected. Root canal treatment may be the only way to preserve a natural tooth. The sedative options used to keep you relaxed in the treatment chair can also affect the total cost.
[call]However, you get a considerable value from crowns’ inherent function and purpose. Crowns represent a straightforward way to restore the appearance of your smile and healthy and comfortable function. Such treatment also prevents the need for tooth replacement options. Instead of extracting the natural tooth, you keep it! You also keep more money in your pocket; since dental bridges, dentures, and implants rebuild the entire tooth, they are generally more costly than treatments to rebuild portions.
Additional aspects of treatment that may add to the cost can also be of great value. If you are anxious or stressed out about an upcoming procedure, sedation can take the edge off, so you have a better experience in the treatment chair.
The value of proactive care
In some cases, Dr. Aulakh may be able to restore the tooth without a full-coverage crown. Onlays or partial crowns are among the more conservative options available at our Brookswood area office. Preventive services to preserve your teeth and maintain oral health are often 100% covered by many insurance plans. Your restorative treatment may also cover at least a portion of the costs. Since plans vary significantly in what they cover, we encourage you to bring your questions and concerns to us. Call (604) 409-8660.
