Will Insurance Cover My Dental Crown?
Dental crown treatment falls into two main categories, cosmetic and restorative dentistry. In general, restorative dentistry is covered by insurance, and cosmetic dentistry is not. The reason for your dental crown determines the categorization.
Restorative Purposes Include:
- Repairing fractures, breaks, and other damage that has weakened the tooth structure
- Restoring a tooth after a root canal infection, cavity, or decay
- Replacing a weak filling or an older crown
Cosmetic Purposes Include:
- Repairing superficial cracks or chips that do not comprise the health of your tooth.
- Correcting stains and deep discoloration
- Supplementing the size of a proportionally small or short tooth
What About Implant-Supported Crowns?
If you are missing a tooth or need an extraction, our dentists may recommend dental implant treatment. Dental implants are placed within the jawbone to restore the underlying roots and create a stable foundation for a prosthetic tooth.
While insurance doesn't normally pay for dental implants, your implant-supported crown may be covered. During your consultation at our Flushing, NY, practice, we can look into your plan and find out what your benefits include.
Factors That Influence Your Total Treatment Cost
The price of a dental crown at Jewel Dental Associates is about $1,200; however, other factors influence the final cost of treatment not included in that figure.
Materials
Crowns can be made from a variety of materials that range in price. Depending on your needs, you may want to select a more premium material that can improve the strength or aesthetics of your restoration.
Sedation
Dental care can be difficult for some patients who suffer from anxiety or low pain tolerance. If you have trouble sitting still for procedures, sedation can be incredibly beneficial. Dental sedation will add to your total costs but can ensure your comfort and safety during the procedure.
Additional Procedures
In some cases, our dentists will need to perform additional procedures to restore your oral health before placing a crown. Root canals, periodontal therapy, and other preliminary procedures are often covered by insurance the same as your dental crown but may increase your total out-of-pocket expenses.

Avoiding Timely Treatment Can Result in Additional Costs
Placing a dental crown is a relatively straightforward dentistry treatment. Crowning your damaged tooth in a timely manner can prevent problems such as:
Cavities
When a damaged tooth is left untreated, the tooth is more susceptible to decay because it has less protection. This decay can spread throughout your tooth and throughout your mouth, requiring costly treatment.
Root Canal Infection
Untreated dental decay and trauma can allow bacteria to make their way into the inner chamber of the tooth, leading to a root canal infection. The infection must then be cleared, and the root canal disinfected before our practice can place a crown to restore the tooth.
The Need for Implants
If root canal treatment cannot save the tooth, it will have to be extracted. After extraction, the patient will need a costly dental implant to restore the tooth roots and a dental crown to replace the tooth above the gumline.
