Cost of a dental crown
The price area of the material is minor, as well as the consumption; only few grams are needed per crown. Consequently, differences between prices up to 100 € are not explicable. Everybody who is asking more money is trying to take advantage of you! Differences between prices play a role when it comes to aesthetic. It makes a difference if the technician is making 10 crowns or just one crown per hour!

Crown materials
A crown´s lifetime doesn´t depend on the material, but the fringe-tightness and thus the precise work of the dentist. Every material used in the dental industry has a shelf period, which is much longer than a human life. More on this in the video tangent cut, step cut and crown. Each material used in Europe is inspected precisely, otherwise they must not be manufactured.

Crown pain
The crown is isolated from the tooth stump by a thin cement shift. Usually the ceramic is oral. Only immunocompetent cells cause allergic reactions! Neither in the tooth stump nor in the cementfissure are immunocompetent cells, so no allergic reaction is possible! Bleeding gums, a cauterisation in the mouth, or recession of the gums are not an indication of an allergy, but usually an indication of leaking crown edges, or consequent periodontitis.
