Case Description
I have a temporary crown that has chipped away on a tooth that I had a root canal on. I have lost a little of that tooth as well, and im worried about losing the whole tooth entirely. I have a space next to that tooth as it is, and I need help. We currently do not have dental insurance.

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Cost Estimate: $$1200-1500 for the post, core, crown
Greetings, we would be glad to assist you. Your options are many, from a bridge, to implant and crown, to a removable partial denture. I would recommend saving the tooth usually. We do all of the above treatments, so its your choice. Restoring the area in the most predictable way and the strongest way is ideal. A post and core plus a crown for the root canaled tooth is certainly the first option to look at. Dealing with the space is an important factor to look at...you may want to do something with it at the same time.If you wish an exam, that is our first step. Hope to see you soon.Sincerely, bill williams, dmd, magd, miccmosuwaneedental.com

No Estimate at this time. Additional information required.
The best thing to do is first take an x-ray of the tooth to be sure it is generally healthy. After this, a plan can be made to restore it before it cracks any more. We have payment plans for qualified patients that are arranged by our Financial Manager. Consider coming in for a free consultation.
