A second number for San Marco's crown quotes.
San Marco keeps what's worth keeping. The lions still guard the fountain, the storefronts around the Square still wear their 1920s bones, and the neighborhood knows the difference between restoring a thing and merely replacing it. A crown deserves the same standard — it's restoration work on a tooth — and around here the craftsmanship matters exactly as much as the estimate. Which is the part local dentistry tends to fumble: the estimate arrives after the consult, in six line items, with a number that invites a second opinion.
We'll be plain about geography: San Marco sits at the far end of our map. The studio opens in September 2026 down in the Ponte Vedra–Nocatee corridor — a straight run south on I-95 to the CR-210 exits. What earns that drive is arithmetic. A ceramic crown is $1,250 here, one figure that already contains the temporary crown, re-seating it if it loosens, and the fitting visit — the very items that pad a quote elsewhere. Porcelain-fused-to-metal is $1,195; members pay $999 for ceramic. Every number sits on a schedule you can read tonight, published before the doors open.
The visit structure travels well, too. You book exactly one hour — the prep. The second visit seats the finished crown as a walk-in whenever we text that the lab has delivered: any day, 7am to 7pm. For Baptist Medical Center people running on shift time, that means a 7am chair after nights or an evening one before them. Founding 500 membership holds $29 a month, for life.
Why this works from here
- One booked hour total — the fit visit is a walk-in, so the I-95 run south happens on your schedule, not a scheduler's
- Hours shaped for Baptist Medical Center shifts: 7am works after a night shift, 7pm before one, weekends identical
- Text us the treatment plan you got near the Square and compare it line by line against the published schedule before driving anywhere
Questions, answered plainly
I already have a crown quote from an office off Hendricks Avenue. Will you sanity-check the price?
Gladly — text us the treatment plan (just the procedures and numbers, please, no health details in the message). We'll point out which of its line items our single $1,250 fee already absorbs: the temporary, the seating visit, re-cementation. Sometimes the other quote holds up, and we'll say so. A published schedule means the comparison costs you a text, not a consult fee.
I work nights at Baptist. When would crown visits actually happen?
The prep hour books at 7am — straight after handoff, before you sleep — or in the evening before a shift, since we run to 7pm all seven days. The fit visit is a walk-in you time yourself once the ready-text arrives, and the live wait number on the site shows the quiet windows. No PTO forms involved.
This crown is going on a front tooth. Will it read as a crown from across the dinner table?
The lab is why it shouldn't. We photograph your shade, a technician builds the crown in metal-free ceramic matched to the neighbors, and you approve the look at try-in — before it's cemented, while changes are still easy. No gray margin at the gumline, because there's no metal under the ceramic to show.
Honestly: is driving from San Marco worth it for two visits?
Run your own math. One visit is a booked hour; the other is thirty walk-in minutes you can attach to anything that takes you south. Against a typical unbundled quote, the difference on a single crown often exceeds a year of membership. If the numbers don't clear that bar for you, the schedule is public — you'll know before you spend a mile on it.
What's the complete cost picture?
$1,250 ceramic or $1,195 porcelain-fused-to-metal, temporary and fit visit included in either. A core buildup — needed only when the tooth is heavily broken down — is $295 and appears in your written quote before work starts. Members pay $999 for ceramic; membership runs $39 a month, $29 for life in the Founding 500.
