I don’t know about crowns, but when I looked into getting an implant, the gold option was actually cheaper than the colour matched one, because they very specifically do not have to do the work of colour matching the gold. But I’m sure it varies from place to place
god man i’d love that. my dad (bench jeweler) asked his dentist where he had his castings done, called the foundry and asked em to send it to him instead of the dentist, and he set a diamond in the face of it.
when he got to his appointment for the crown his dentist met him in the waiting room like “hey that crown hasn’t come in yet” and he just handed it to him. i wanna do the same thing with a titanium implant and a lumogarnet!
