If you have a damaged or weakened tooth, dental crowns can restore its strength and appearance. Our dentists in Calgary focus on providing high-quality crowns that protect your teeth and blend seamlessly with your natural smile.
The cost of a dental crown depends on the material you select, the complexity of the procedure, and any preparatory work needed. Options like porcelain, ceramic, or metal crowns come with varying durability and pricing. At Inglewood Family Dental, we provide clear estimates to help you plan your treatment confidently.
Crown Pricing & Insurance
At Inglewood Family Dental, we follow the Alberta Dental Fee Guide to offer fair and transparent pricing for dental crowns. Costs depend on the material selected, such as porcelain, ceramic, or metal, and the complexity of the procedure. Most dental insurance plans cover part or all of the crown’s cost, but it’s important to review your policy to understand what is included. Our team directly bills major insurance providers to simplify the process for you.

What Impacts the Cost of a Dental Crown
Several factors can affect the cost of a dental crown:
- Material Used: Porcelain and ceramic crowns are popular for their natural look, which makes them a great choice for front teeth, but they can cost more. Metal crowns, including gold alloys, are often chosen for their durability and vary in price based on the type of metal used.
- Tooth Preparation: If your tooth requires additional procedures, such as a filling or post and core build-up for added support, it can increase the total cost. These steps make the tooth strong enough to hold the crown securely.
- Procedure Complexity: Some teeth, like molars, need more detailed work to handle chewing forces, while crowns on front teeth require precise shaping to blend with your natural smile. Both of these factors can impact the cost.
- Lab Work and Customization: A well-fitting crown that matches the color and shape of your teeth depends on skilled lab work, which influences the overall price. High-quality customization helps your crown feel comfortable and look seamless.
Cost Savings and Payment Plans
We know that dental care can be a huge expense, so we offer several payment options to make getting a dental crown more affordable.
- Personal Funds: Paying out of pocket is always an option, and we accept various payment methods, including credit and debit cards. This approach allows you to cover costs directly without dealing with third parties.
- Canada Dental Benefit Program: If you’re eligible, this program provides financial assistance for dental treatments, including crowns. It’s a helpful resource for families or individuals who qualify and need support with dental care costs.
- Payment Plans: For patients without insurance or those facing higher out-of-pocket expenses, we offer flexible payment plans. These plans let you spread the cost into smaller monthly payments, reducing financial pressure while still accessing the care you need.
- Insurance: If you have dental insurance, we can directly bill your provider. This simplifies the payment process, leaving you responsible only for any remaining balance after your coverage is applied. You may want to check your policy details to understand the extent of your benefits.
