How much does a porcelain crown cost?
Before answering the question How much does a porcelain crown cost? We will learn about the types of porcelain teeth first. There are 3 main types of porcelain teeth as follows:
1.1. Price of metal porcelain teeth
Metal porcelain teeth have an inner layer made of metal alloy. This type of porcelain teeth has a fairly good ability to withstand biting force, the outside surface is covered with a layer of porcelain so the color matches the natural tooth. So how much does a porcelain tooth cost? The price of a metal ceramic tooth is usually around 1,000,000 – 3,000,000 VND/tooth.
Advantages
– Low cost
– The same strength as real teeth, ensuring chewing function
Disadvantages
– Opaque white color, not transparent
– The tooth will be oxidized under the influence of acids in the oral cavity and gradually blacken the neck of the tooth close to the gum line
– It is easy to recognize the black light of the metal inside the ceramic tooth when exposed to light
– Easily irritates soft tissues in the mouth
1.2. All-ceramic teeth
All-ceramic teeth are made entirely from pure ceramic, without any metal components. Currently, Cercon CAD – CAM all-ceramic teeth are the newest type on the market. A full ceramic tooth currently ranges from 4,000,000 – 9,000,000 VND.
Advantages
– Has the same color as real teeth, bringing natural beauty
– Still retains white color when exposed to light
– Lasts up to decades
– No black gum line because ceramic cannot be oxidized in the oral cavity
– Does not irritate other soft tissues or cause bad breath
Disadvantages
– High cost
– Requires the most advanced technology and machinery to manufacture modern ceramic teeth
– The doctor performing the procedure needs to be highly skilled
1.3. Porcelain Veneer
Porcelain veneers are a very popular cosmetic restoration technique that preserves real teeth in the US and Europe. However, in Vietnam, this form is not really popular due to the complexity of the implementation process as well as high technical requirements. The current price of a porcelain veneer is around 6,000,000 – 12,000,000 VND.
Advantages
No need to grind too much tooth, the doctor just needs to grind a thin layer of enamel on the outside of the tooth surface according to a certain ratio and then stick the porcelain on top.
Disadvantages
– Low durability because the adhesive will gradually degrade
– Relatively high cost
– Complicated implementation technique

4. Why are porcelain crown prices different at different dental clinics?
Porcelain crown material
As mentioned above, porcelain crown material will affect the price of cosmetic porcelain crowns. Dental clinics that use genuine porcelain teeth will have higher prices, but the quality of porcelain teeth will also be better.
Equipment and machinery
Equipment and machinery imported from countries with advanced technology in the region and the world such as: Korea, Japan, Germany, America… will shorten the treatment time and the level of damage to the minimum for you.
Doctor’s skills
The durability and beauty of porcelain crowns will depend largely on the doctor’s skills. For dental clinics with many doctors graduating from top medical universities, the cost for a porcelain crown will be higher. But in return, it will ensure that the porcelain crown restoration results are highly aesthetic and safe.
Service quality
Currently, a good dental address does not only need a skilled doctor and modern equipment and machinery. To evaluate whether a dental clinic meets the standards or not, it also depends on the quality of service, customer satisfaction, and customer care before, during and after treatment.

5. Should I get cheap porcelain crowns?
Porcelain crowns are certified to be safe and do not affect oral health. However, many cheap porcelain crown services at dental clinics have not been quality tested, leading to the following complications:
5.1 Tooth sensitivity
When a doctor does not have enough expertise to perform porcelain crowns, the teeth will not fit together tightly. This inadvertently creates conditions for food to accumulate in the gap, causing prolonged pain, especially when eating foods that are too hot or too cold.
5.2. Gingivitis
Before making porcelain teeth, there will be a step of grinding real teeth to support the porcelain crown. If the doctor does not perform carefully and meticulously, it is very likely that the grinding line will sink deep under the gums, causing bleeding and bad breath when the gums are infected.
5.3. Risk of broken porcelain teeth
With a cheaper price than the market, porcelain teeth produced with processes and materials that do not ensure quality not only do not meet aesthetic requirements but also have poor durability and are easily broken during chewing.
5.4. Cheap porcelain crowns lead to pulpitis
If the dentist grinds the real tooth in the wrong proportion, accidentally invading the inner pulp, bacteria will have the opportunity to invade and attack, causing pulpitis. This condition not only causes pain, but if not treated promptly, the patient may have to remove the infected tooth.
6. Porcelain teeth warranty policy at BIK Dental
