Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Hi there, it sounds like you will probably need a crown. Possibly a root canal if the decay/broken section is very large.To give you an idea: without insurance the cost wise what you are looking at.Crown: $940Root Canal: $967Build Up: $237 (used if an extensive amount of the tooth is missing)Complimentary exam and xray to diagnose what is wrong.Hope this helps.Dr. Loberg
