Gentle Dental Brookline Reviews

    2024

    Doctor Li and Heather are THE BEST! I have been going to the Brookline GD for a while now and have recently acquired some general anxiety and they took such care with me on my recent cavity and crown work and I felt wholly cared for. All the work I have had done in the last 20 years has been quality work with no issues. I cannot recommend the Brookline Gentle Dental enough.

    I had an appointment for a temporary crown with Dr. Lee. Dr. Lee and her assistant were both professional, very friendly, and personable. I've been going to Gentle Dental at the Brookline (roughly an hour from home) for over 15 years and would certainly recommend this location to friends or family.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a dental crown cost in Massachusetts?

In Massachusetts, the cost of a dental crown varies widely, ranging from $800 to $3,000. Factors that influence the price include the type of material used (such as porcelain, ceramic, or gold), the complexity of the procedure, and the dentist's fees.
 

What is the average cost of a full crown?

The national average cost for a full dental crown is typically between $1,000 and $1,500. However, prices can vary based on the crown material and the specific dental practice.
 

Are crowns more expensive than implants?

Dental implants generally cost more than crowns. This is because implants involve a surgical procedure to replace the entire tooth structure from root to crown, requiring more time and resources.
 

What are the common types of dental crowns?

There are several types of dental crowns, including ceramic, porcelain fused to metal, all-porcelain, gold alloys, and all-resin. Each type has its own advantages in terms of aesthetics, durability, and cost.
 

Does dental insurance cover porcelain crowns?

Porcelain crowns are often covered by dental insurance, especially when they are necessary for medical reasons, such as restoring a broken or severely decayed tooth. However, coverage can vary, so it’s important to check with your insurance provider.
 

How does a dental crown work?

A dental crown works by encasing the damaged or decayed tooth with a custom-designed cap. This restores the tooth's shape, size, strength, and appearance, helping to protect it from further damage while improving function and aesthetics.
 

Difference between a Dental Cap vs Crown?

While often used interchangeably, "cap" usually refers to a smaller version of a crown, used when only part of the tooth needs coverage. Crowns cover the entire visible part of the tooth, providing substantial protection and restoration.
