Maybe Marcus can share what your up against if your a smoker/chewing tobacco.... or other habits that contribute to lowering the chance of a successful dental procedure

The other reliable source of information is lab technicians...they have to work with the impressions and prescriptions the dentists supply to them ...
Is he taking new patients? Contact info please.I get all my dental work except cleaning done in Los Algodones, a small border town in Mexico near Yuma, Arizona. My dentist was trained at Loma Linda University in San Diego, speaks perfect English, and is about 10% of the cost of a Seattle dentist. Crowns are $150 and are ready in an hour, not 2 weeks. An implant is $1650 not $7000. His clinic is immaculate and has better digital Xray gear than my last US dentist. I am done paying US prices for dental work.

You might as well spend whatever you are asked to pay for dental work, this is the only time that you actually CAN "take it with you" when you die.

I am facing a situation where my son needs to have some dental work done and there is no way he can afford it. My regular dentist has given an estimate in the thousands range. I plan to take him to two or three other dentists to see what they say. It does not hurt to ask. Some things can be done in more than one way and with different prices. One dentist may not even consider the less expensive alternatives.
Shop around and see.
The number of crowns that I have melted down from crematoriums suggest otherwise. Grandpa's gold teeth aren't in his urn.
Just had a cracked eye tooth extracted this morning--$625.
Aren't these the property of the next of kin ?
My family members have strict instructions to remove all precious metals from my carcass before it gets hauled off and dumped in the hudson river....

lol...realistically, unless you've paid for your dentists porsche, you've probably only got $50 in your mouth.
But better your family than the potters field crematorium worker after they drag your ass out of the drink.
