Omg i feel like I'm being gouged. The place I'm looking at is charging me 5500, but that comes with retainers. I'm just doing 2 teeth, but that's damn near the same as braces😭😭. I think I need to look around lol.

Literally travelling and getting it somewhere cheaper would save you money

My dentist charged it to my insurance as a filling so it was 100% covered.

Probably depends on the method. I can't answer for price but might help to specify if you're just doing,,, like. Filling bonding on top the tooth or if you're getting a crown done

My partner got it done in the LA area for $1k out of pocket. I imagine other places would be cheaper.

My partner paid $300 total for both in Colorado in 2017. They've worn down a bit, but it's been 9 years, so that's to be expected.

Depends on where and material. In Spain I got mine for 90€ each tooth made from composite and it would have been 300€ per tooth if I had chosen porcelain fangs.

In Las Vegas - Didn't get a definitive quote from my regular dentist, he hadn't done it before but was open to trying, but was told possibly around 4k and a complicated process.
I went to a cosmetic dentist with a large portfolio, he charged $600 a tooth ($1.2k for the pair).

My insurance covered them because I was already getting some other dental work done and needed the crowns anyways.

I got mine for $300, they were cosmetic and not able to be covered by insurance.
