DEPENDS ON DENTST
Amount: $1,000.00
Posted by: a user in al, AL.Posted: July 5th, 2010 05:07PM
The prices listed on this site refer to general dentists only. Endodontists (dentists who specialize in root canals) generally charge around $1000, more or less depending on the complexity of the root canal.

If you go to a regular dentist expect root canals to cost much less.

Root Canal Experience//Shop Around for Price
Amount: $1,300.00

Which Tooth: bottom left molarPractitioner: Family Smiles
I had an old cracked/broken tooth that eventually became infected and after a sleepless night in pain I saw a dentist the next morning. That dentist recommended root canal/crown and wanted $2,400. Having no insurance I could only pay for the office visit/two x-rays at $116 and got antibiotics and pain killers. I really didn't want to loose another tooth (I'd already lost three over the years b/c I could never afford to go to the dentist and always waited until the teeth were so bad that I had to have them pulled. Plus I am very nervous about dentist.)After some research I found a new low cost dental clinic and they offer paitents with no insurance a discount and a payment plan! So the root canal/crown at this clinic was much cheaper at $1,300, plus I could pay $650 down and the rest when I have the permanent crown put in. It's not a fancy clinic but it is more affordable for someone like me.

Root Canal

Which Tooth: Upper left molar. (14)Practitioner:
The procedure seemed to be fairly regular.
They took a manual xray and deduced that light infection in a deep crown breach was killing the nerve, so a root canal was called for.

In and out within the hour. No muss no fuss.
