Actually, gold isn't expensive when compared to other durable materials. And, since gold is by far the most durable material, it has the lowest long term cost. If you want the best, and also the lowest long term cost, then gold is the choice. There are plenty of dentists that are very skilled at placing gold inlays and crowns.
