Never had a crown before but think I may need one.

Anyone have a general idea as to how much they cost in Korea??

Also, is it worth seeking out a better dentist in Seoul or can I get by with an average denstist anywhere??

Thanks

300,000won for an enamel crown

450,000won for a gold crown...


anything more than that - and you are getting ripped off.

p.s. - will cost you a little extra (60,000 ~ 120,000won) if you need the root canal, filling etc etc first.

I got all eight of my molars done (4 gold inlays and 4 gold onlays) for 1,000,000.

He was an 'unregistered' dentist. Went to one of the best schools though, and gets all his work through word of mouth so to say. No complaints about the work.

A regular dentist was going to charge me 400,000 for one.

I had 8 root canals and 8 gold crowns done for W800,000 here in Daejeon. Not the best dentist in town but I have no real complaints.
