    No a private crown laboratory fee for a crown could easily exceed this on its own. Private laboratory fees for crowns vary from £100 ish to £1000!

    If it was a complex molar (back tooth) root treatment then the cost of this with a specialist will depending on the area (city centre, suburbs etc) cost from £450 to £600 on its own without a crown. Part of the consent should have included the fact the tooth would probably need a crown if one hadn't already been provided.
    I was just going on what my own dental practise charges for root treatment and crown work. I just recently had a crown fitted to a molar, that had previousy had root canal treatment and standard filling which had since fallen out, for a little over £300 - half for the preparation treatment the rest for the crown itself.
