Dental crowns cost
Dental crowns cost varies quite a lot depending on where you look for prices, for example many clinics charge from €600-€1,000 for dental crowns treatment.
In situations where multiple teeth need crowns the final cost can run into many thousands of euros,

Getting your teeth done with dental crowns will help in a big way to restore them and to greatly improve functionality.
When a tooth is badly damaged, a dental crown can restore function and appearance — but the price can be a big part of the decision.
If you’re researching dental crowns cost, it helps to know typical local fees in Ireland and how they compare with prices at specialist clinics in Hungary, such as Perfect Smile Dental Implant Centre in Hódmezővásárhely.
Typical costs in Ireland
In Ireland the cost of a single dental crown varies widely depending on the material (porcelain-fused-to-metal, full ceramic/E.max, or zirconia), the dentist’s experience, and whether any preparatory work (root canal, build-up, temporary crown) is required.
Many Dublin and national practices quote prices roughly in the €600–€1,000+ range for modern ceramic/ziconia crowns, with some high-end or specialist practices charging nearer €1,200 for premium options.
These figures reflect routine private-practice pricing across Ireland.
What Perfect Smile (Hódmezővásárhely) charges
Perfect Smile, a clinic that promotes itself to Irish patients through a Wexford dental clinic and online presence, lists substantially lower unit prices for crowns.
For example, porcelain crowns from about €285 and zirconia crowns around €365 according to clinic-linked pages and affiliated dental tourism listings.
These prices are consistent with many Hungarian dental clinics that routinely promote 40–60% savings versus Western Europe, call Fintan 0873490104 for details on dental crowns cost in Perfect Smile Hungary.
Why the price gap exists
Several factors explain the difference. Hungary has lower operating costs (staff, rent, lab fees) than Ireland, and a well-developed dental tourism sector that serves many EU patients, so clinics price competitively.
Materials are comparable in many cases — zirconia produced in European dental labs is widely used in Hungary — but the final fee still reflects local overheads and market positioning.
Independent price surveys also show Hungary’s crown prices typically sit well below Western European averages.
What’s included (and what isn’t)
When comparing dental crowns cost, be careful to compare like-for-like. Some Irish quotes include tooth preparation, temporary crowns and follow-up, while some advertised foreign prices quote only the crown itself.
Additional treatments — root canal therapy, post/core build-up, extractions, sedation or complicated impressions — will add to the final bill in either country.
Ask any clinic for a written breakdown so you can compare total treatment costs rather than headline prices alone.
Is it worth travelling for cheaper crowns?
Many Irish patients find significant savings when combining lower Hungarian fees with a short trip abroad where dental crowns cost up to 50% less.
For example, a crown that costs €800 in Ireland might be available for €300–€400 in Hungary, translating into hundreds saved per tooth even after travel costs.
But factor in travel, accommodation, transfers, any need for return visits, and aftercare arrangements in Ireland.
Some clinics with Irish representatives offer follow-up or joint-care arrangements — confirm these before booking with Fintan on 0873490104
Quality, guarantees and logistics
Lower price doesn’t automatically mean lower quality — many Hungarian clinics use modern labs, certified materials and experienced teams — but check for patient reviews, accreditation, warranty terms for crowns, and clear aftercare instructions.
If possible, request examples of previous work, details about the dental lab used, and exact materials (e.g., monolithic zirconia vs layered zirconia vs E.max).
Also ask about what happens if a crown needs adjustment or replacement after you return home, of course this isn’t an issue with Perfect Smile Hungary and Hungarian dentists Wexford.
There you find that dental crowns cost far less and aftercare is in Wexford.
Bottom line
If your main goal is affordability, Hungary — and clinics such as Perfect Smile — commonly offer substantially lower dental crowns cost than private Irish practices, often saving many hundreds of euros per tooth.
However, make comparisons based on finished-treatment quotes, check credentials and guarantees, and include travel/aftercare costs when deciding whether to have your crown fitted at home or abroad.
