The reason I ask is that if I have the crown done here we will only be here about ten days after it is done so if there is a problem it would be my problem. I am thinking of waiting until we move to have it done then than I would have the advantage of the local Dentist.

I am pretty sure it was a crown I had placed here that was about 1200.00 (included the crown and building the base?)which I thought was very expensive, More than we would have paid where we were from. I think my dentist is priced middle of the road. We talked to a dentist when we first got here, and even though we are both avid brushers, flossers, and always did the 2 trips to the dentist a year. It was going to cost 10K to "fix" both my husband's teeth and mine. Needless to say, we did not return, and the next dentist didn't find any of the same problems.
