One of my crowns is loose and I need it replaced. If you've had a porcelain crown replaced recently in Busan (no metal!), how much was it?

Dental crowns,

Look at the google ads above this post. How creepy! They read the posts and feed the corresponding ads in!

As for your post: It depends entirely on how many points your cown is. Don't be afraid of your neighborhood clinic. The receptionist might not speak very good english but the dentist should be conversant.

I found the Dental Clinic that advertises here on Pweb to be kind of pricey...

It depends on what material you would choose, the all ceramic (Empress), (In-ceram), (ZI-ceram) here for one tooth is around 500,000 won ( scary huh,reasonable though).I don't know how much are other materials, should be cheaper.

I have a dentist firend in Daegu, I went there to do some teeth make up, I spent lots of money on my teeth ( I was crazy, but it is worth the money), of course he gave me a nice discount coz he is a Chinese-Korean and we have been friends for two years.

http://www.yongtai.co.kr my friend's clinic,ask your Korean friend to help reading.

If you need more information about the price, PM me, I am not making ad for him though, he does not need ad, he is a great dentist.

Yes, it is around $500, All ceramic is referred here~!

I am not exaggerating, the price is similar here with that in China, I found.


You could ask your friend to call a 치과 in your neighborhood inquiring the price, I bet I am not joking.

The San Francisco office in Seomyeon quoted me even higher than that. That's higher than they charge in Los Angeles - not what I call reasonable, good grief!

Here again, the cheapest material is 300,000 for one tooth. not all ceramic, it is metal inside the crown.

Something else: Teeth whitening, which consists of two parts, one you do it at home 500,000 won, one you do that in clinic, 600,000 won.

You do both at 1,000,000 won. You can choose to do only the part at home.
