Dental crowns??
Dental crowns don't hurt at all.





The cost depends greatly on the country you're in. In the US, I'd expect a single crown to cost between 800 - 1500 dollars. The material it's made out of can also affect the cost greatly, ie. silver, gold, composite.
Reply:Cost really varies, but no they don't hurt anymore then a regular filling. They need to remove the decay before they can crown it.
Reply:Crowns are expensive but the price varies from office to office. Having a crown done is not painful but the tooth may be a little sensitive after the dentist is done prepping the tooth. This will go away. When they are prepping the tooth they will remove all of the old filling and decay. They reshape the tooth and when they are doing this they will go under the gum a bit so they get a better impression of the tooth. So the gum will be a little sore for a while. Some warm salt water rinses will help the gums to heal a little quicker.
Reply:I have had two dental crowns and I have an appointment soon to get a third. They are not painful at all. In my opinion, a cleaning is more painful. Just ask for the happy gas before you have it done. I had the happy gas, and numbing and had my iPod on and it was over before I knew it. You will have a temp crown on while your perm. one is made. Having the perm. ones put on takes less than 30 minutes, give or take the dental assistant having to resize them to fit. Nothing to worry about at all! The only painful part is the sensitivity to the original tooth while the temps are on.
