What does the word 'Crowns' mean in the following text?

“The vast majority of contaminated sites have been cleaned up or are being cleaned up at the present time - 1,4 billion crowns have already been invested in clean-up work and we expect that another 240 million will be invested between now and 2012 when the sanitation project should be concluded. So the clean-up operation should end eleven years after the last Soviet soldier left the Czech Republic.”

What does the word 'Crowns' mean in the following text?
The crown is the currency of the Czech Republic.


As of current, 1 U.S. dollar = 18.5270959 Czech crowns (koruny)
Reply:A crown was a unit of British money, equal to five shillings. But that was old money and is no longer used now. It is also a unit of Czech currency and given the dates in this paragraph, and the fact that the koruna (pronounced crown) is still in use, that is likely the currency referred to by the writer.
Reply:OLD money from great brittan.





The Crown, originally known as the "crown of the double rose", was an English coin introduced as part of King Henry VIII's monetary reform of 1526.
Reply:UK currency is pounds.





Czech Republic currency is 'koruna', which translates to 'crowns'.
Reply:It sounds like a unit of currency-- probably British, but not sure.
Reply:Money from Great Britain

Do root canals on premolars require crowns?

If so, how common is it for them to be required? Did you have a root canal on a premolar that did not require a crown? I am wondering because a dentist said I may need one done for that tooth. I was afraid to ask if getting a root canal on that tooth would also mean having to pay for a crown, though.

Do root canals on premolars require crowns?
Craig B, My dentist was able to help me understand the crowns process very clearly to me. Your dentist should be able to answer your questions. If you denist doesn't perform crowns procedures, try finding one here: http://www.addictionselfhelp.com
Reply:Not necessarily right away but eventually it is the best thing to do--A tooth that has been root canaled tend to be brittle over time and more prone to breaking
Reply:every root canal treated tooth needs crowns or unless it is non functional.


Can you get braces/invisalign if you have crowns?

I have 1 crown in my front tooth, can I still get braces or invisalign or would it make it fall off?

Can you get braces/invisalign if you have crowns?
I think me and you are in the same boat. I had a crown on my front tooth. It got knocked out in a basketball game. Had to have that replaced. My teeth aren't real straight so instead of just replacing it and being done, I'm going through Invisalign now. With a temporary crown on the front. My dentist and orthodontist figured that was the best thing to do. Once the Invisalign is done, then I get the permanent crown put on.





So, I have a temporary crown on my front tooth and taking the aligner out and putting it back in, I haven't had any problems. I was worried about that too. It hasn't become loose or anything. And with a permanent crown, that's on even better. That's like having a regular tooth. Should be no problem.

Dentist in SF Bay Area who does permanent crowns on first visit for teeth that already have root canals?
I'm not sure but i think that's impossible. Most dentist have to order the crown from a lab first they do a mold using some kind of putty like stuff and then send it off so that the crown can be custom made to fit your mouth. they might be able to do something temporay for you right away for fuctionality like eating and stuff but that wont last forever it will eventulaly fall out if you dont get a real crown trust me i know but to be honest your best bet is to get out the phone book and call around
Reply:Try the Castro district!
Reply:I know a really good dentist in SF. Dr. Noreen Quimson.... She's really nice... I don't know about the installing a permanent crown thing though.... But she's really a good dentist....

How Much Do Crowns Cost? My Dentist overcharging?

my girlfriend had to pay the dentist $2,300 for 2 root canals and now he wants to put 2 crowns on her for another $2,000.





Does dental work usually cost this much?

How Much Do Crowns Cost? My Dentist overcharging?
Wow, that seems expensive, but depending where you live in the country can vary. The average price nationwide for a crown is around $1200 each. See, I pay around $500 for mine because of this great plan. www.healthsavings.ourperfectcard.com I signed up online over 5 years ago and they have saved me thousands of dollars $$ since. From my root canals, extractions, xrays, crowns..etc. all services are included in this very affordable plan. My benefits were even active in 2 hours and was able to use it the very same day. Sounds like this could help.
Reply:A few years ago I was an office manager for a dental practice. Dental work is very expensive. Does your girlfriend have dental insurance? Most of the time, there are financing options available. Crowns typically cost $1000 each.





One company that we worked with was Care Credit. They offer low monthly payments, you should tell her to check it out.

My temporary crowns look the same as my teeth before!?

I wanted my front two teeth crowned to improve their appearance as they were slighty chipped. I have just had my temporary crowns put in and they look exactly the same as my teeth before!!!! Will my permanent crowns look like normal teeth and not my teeth before?

My temporary crowns look the same as my teeth before!?
I would ask my dentist...
Reply:If an impression of your teeth had been taken before the doctor prepared your teeth, then your temporaries will more than likely be a "replica" of what you already had (although I try to make my temporaries as appealing as possible). However, there was another impression that was taken AFTER your teeth were prepared. That impression will be sent to the dental lab. There your permanent crowns will be fabricated to perfection. Don't worry-- they will look perfect!
Reply:That's the way temporary crowns look, because they are made using a cast of your teeth as they were before drilling. They have no connection to what your permanent crowns will look.
