How much a gold tooth costs

Crown, cap, grill or a removable gold tone tooth, and what each one runs in 2026

A gold tooth costs $1,000 to $2,500 as a crown at a dental office, $100 to $500 as a grill from a jeweler, and from $350 as a removable gold tone tooth made from the mold you take at home.

The three are different things. A crown is cemented over a ground down tooth, a grill sits over your teeth and comes off, and a removable gold tone tooth fills a gap where a tooth is missing and clips in like a flipper. Which one you want decides the price.

The crown and the cap are dental work on a living tooth. The grill and the removable tooth are not, which is why they cost a fraction and need no drilling.

Three ways to get a gold tooth

  • Crown or cap. A dentist shapes the tooth and cements a gold cap over it. Permanent, and the most expensive.
  • Grill. A jeweler molds a gold piece that slides over your teeth. Removable, needs healthy teeth under it.
  • Removable gold tone tooth. For a missing tooth. We set a gold tone tooth into a flipper plate from the mold you take at home, so it fills the gap and clips onto the teeth beside it.

What a removable gold tone tooth is, honestly

It is a dental appliance tooth with a gold tone finish, not a cast gold ingot. Four styles, open face, full, outline or a cross, set into an acrylic or flexible plate. It fills a missing tooth, looks like a gold tooth when you smile, and comes out at night like any flipper.

From $350 a tooth, impression kit and postage included. The plate that carries it is a flipper from $319.

Canine, front tooth or molar

A gold canine or a front tooth shows the most and is the most common order. A molar gold tooth is usually a crown job at the dentist, because a removable plate at the back of the mouth is harder to keep in place with one tooth. Tell us which tooth is missing and we will say plainly whether a removable version holds there.

How to take the mold at home

Order the style, we mail the impression kit, you take the mold at the kitchen table and send it back with the prepaid label. A licensed dentist reviews your photos, our technicians set the tooth, and it reaches you in 6 to 10 business days door to door.
