Root Canal Cost


How Much Does a Root Canal Cost?

 
low costFront Tooth: $300-$1,500average costBicuspid: $400-$1,800high costMolar: $500-$2,000

Root canal therapy involves the soft inner core of a tooth, called the pulp. Running like a thread from near the top of the tooth down through its root, the pulp provides the tooth with nutrients and nerves. If the pulp is diseased or injured, the pulp tissue dies. Without treatment, the surrounding tissue becomes infected and abscesses can form.

Typical costs:

  • A front tooth typically has one canal while a rear molar may have three or more, so the cost of root canal treatment depends on the number of canals in the tooth, the location of the tooth (ease of access) and the training and experience of the dental professional. Root canals can be done by general dentists or by root canal specialists called endodontists, who typically work on the most difficult cases and charge 30%-50% more than general dentists.
  • Dental insurance might cover 40%-80% of the costs, depending on the terms of the policy. However, many dental plans only pay a maximum of $1,000-$1,500 per year for all covered dental procedures.
  • On a front tooth, root canal treatment can cost $300-$1,500 or more but typically is about $900-$1,100 depending on complexity and whether the work is done by a dentist or an endodontist. For example, CostHelper readers without insurance coverage report paying $960-$1,348 for a front tooth root canal, at an average cost of $1,156. CostHelper readers with insurance report out-of-pocket costs of $243-$1,200, for an average payment of $608.
  • A root canal on a bicuspid or premolar tooth (mid-mouth) can cost $400-$1,800 or more, but typically is about $900-$1,100. CostHelper readers without insurance report paying $600-$1,550, or an average cost of $957. CostHelper readers with insurance report out-of-pocket expenses of $290-$375, or an average cost of $333.
  • Root canal therapy on a back molar can be $500-$2,000 or more, but typically costs about $1,000-$1,300. CostHelper readers without insurance report paying $500-$1,583 at an average cost of $1,184. CostHelper readers with insurance report out-of-pocket expenses of $300-$1,654, with an average payment of $682.

What should be included:
  • An X-ray is taken to reveal the shape of the canals and any bone infection. Once the area is numb, a rubber sheet isolates the tooth, which is drilled open, cleaned using pin-sized files and suction, filled, sealed and covered. The Mayo Clinic offers a slide show[1] illustrating this process.
  • A root canal is often completed in one appointment, although it can require three or more visits depending on the extent and complexity of the problem, including if it's necessary to let an infection clear up before the canal is sealed. Once the root canal is completed, additional dental appointments will be needed to finish restoring the tooth with a filling or a crown, but this restoration work is not considered part of the root canal process.
  • There are many commonly held beliefs about root canals that are incorrect, like the perception that the procedure itself is painful. The American Association of Edodontists explains common root canal myths[2] .
Additional costs:
  • If the initial consultation determines that the root canal must be done on an emergency basis, there may be a same-day-, next-day- or weekend-procedure fee of $50-$100 or more.
  • After the root canal is done, the tooth is typically topped with a dental crown, which can cost $500-$1,500 or more per tooth for all-porcelain crowns (typically used on front teeth); $800-$2,500 or more for metal (typically used on out-of-sight back molars); or $800-$3,000 or more for porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns (which can be used on front or back teeth). Or in a few cases, only a filling is needed, at an additional cost of $90-$300 or more.
Discounts:
  • The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research lists tips for finding low-cost dental care[3] .
  • Dental school clinics[4] may offer reduced rates for services by supervised students or faculty.
Shopping for a root canal:
  • If the patient has dental insurance, the insurance company will provide a list of approved dentists.
  • If the root canal is complicated, most dentists will provide a referral to a local endodontist. Search for a local dentist through the American Dental Association[5] or for an endodontist through the American Association of Endodontists[6] .
  • WedMD lists factors to consider when choosing a dentist[7] .

Full Cost of Molar Root Canal
Amount: $1,119.00
Posted by: a user in Mifflinburg, PA.Posted: July 28th, 2021 06:07AM
Which Tooth: 18Practitioner: Central PA Endodontics
Total cost of my root canal was $1119, which quite surprised me, so I am glad to find this site to compare prices, and it no longer seems so outrageous, especially because mine was a challenging case and lengthy with (I think) all 4 roots performed. I think because I had no idea exactly what would be performed and no idea of the cost. The bill is not itemized and only lists the full amount. Unfortunately, there is such a lack of dental care and appointment options in my area that I really couldn't shop around. Insurance covered a portion, but this is root canal only and not follow up with my dentist for crown. However, I know that the procedure was done well and have confidence in the work. Hope this info helps someone else as everyone else's has helped me. Best wishes for your dental health! Thanks!

There are over 250 federal community health centers and all do dental work and basic primary
medical care for free or at very low cost.
I have been using a federal community health center for 4 years.
The first year I paid $500 for 2 root canals.
For the last 4 years I have paid nothing!!!
(obama care). All fees are what you can afford
so bring your tax return and that is used to set
your fees. If you have insurance they will charge your insurance co. Shop around for the
center that offers the most services, so just do
fillings. ASK DO YOU DO ROOT CANALS BEFORE GOING
TO THE CENTER LOCATION!!!! ANY CENTER THAT DOES ROOT CANALS, DOES COMPREHENSIVE DENTAL WORK
OTHERWISE FOR COMPLEX WORK THEY WILL REFER YOU
OUT TO A LOCAL DENTIST!!! THAT IS NOT WHAT YOU
WANT. YOU WANT A CENTER THAT OVER THE PHONE OR ON THEIR WEB SITE SAYS THEY DO ROOT CANALS!!!

He filed down high spots on tooth. Said he would do 2nd root canal, even though it looked OK. No guarantee it would stop irritation in tooth. Charged me $280 for X-rays I went home w/o $1400 root canal. Other experiences?

Which Tooth: 41 (bottom rt molarPractitioner: coastal dental
to Dentist, had xrays, not digital told I needed root canal. Was quoted 2300 for root canal. Was in considerable pain. Referred to their endodonist, but couldn't get to me for 10 days. Dentist gave me 10 pills of Tramadol. No antibiotics. Waiting 10 days so long in pain, I asked if anyone could see me sooner. No, but they called another they sometime worked with, & they couldn't see me any sooner except for a consult of $125.00 I could get the next day, but no root canal work any sooner then 10 days!. So, I left dentist with less $ in my pocket with only 10 pain pills & left to find another endodonist. No follow-thru for their patient, but they were paid for what service they did provide. I am now out trying to get quickly to an endodonist.

Posted by: a user in Scottsdale, AZ.Posted: August 1st, 2016 11:08AM
Which Tooth: 20Practitioner: Sid Stevens
First started with a check up at another dentist who reported a cavity. Had that filled for $285.00. Within a few days started to pain. Was not satisfied with practitioner so went to Dr. Stevens who performed root canal $699 with crown and build up $1335. Not happy about the prior dentist's findings or this outcome since no cavity on #20 reported a few months prior at a cleaning. The dental industry is way out of control in pricing. In an industry where persons should want to help people have a good bite in order to sustain eating and a healthy smile, this is often not the case. Kudos to other geographic locations where pricing is reasonable. Sad to say that I have spent thousands in the past trying to save a tooth, only to lose it a few years later. Nothing like throwing money away especially when you are not a person who can afford to do that.

I was told: you can usually make an appt at an oral surgeon for an extraction, but not there of course. more money for a dentist. shouldn't this be illegal? however, general traditional dentists here do not charge a non completion fee. The dentist specialty racket should be required to post fees. Even a local garage will do that. vermont.

Very expensive, they didn't want to tell you the price before start to do root canal. It took 30 mins. and cost so much. Matter of fact he had done the wrong tooth. The Universal number that referring to particular teeth doesn't mean anything if that doctor in hurry or greedy or didn't pay attention about what did he see in Ex-ray. General dentist referred to have # 15 and # 19 for root canal. I don't know what number he did but it was not the one that I have pain and General dentist told me that one must have root canal. After I had root canal , I still num all over until after 6 hours I just noticed that he had done root canal to the wrong teeth. I called doctor that had done root canal he said that was the right number. I don't care about the number but the tooth that I had problem still untouch and they didn't want to admitted that was wrong tooth they just said # 19, of course in the paper said # 19 but he actaully did root canal on another tooth. very funny and pity.

Which Tooth: PreMolar Bicuspid-UpperPractitioner: General Dentist
Only one root on this upper tooth so fee was $798 plus $165 for the filling. It was the most simple RC type they said. (This tooth already has a crown so it was drilled into and then resealed) Insurance covered 558.60 for root canal and 115.50 for filling (filling is a separate cost). My share was 30% since this dentist is not in my PPO. He was quick, efficient, and the RC was painless including the injections. RC was performed yesterday at 5:00 p.m. and this morning I felt fantastic. (The dental office phoned me this morning to see how I was doing, and this is a new dentist.) I took 2 ibuprofen before I left the dentist office for impending soreness. Never needed the pain meds prescription they gave me. My cheek area was still numb at 9:00 p.m. yesterday. But I was still able to eat dinner and some tortilla chips!

I had two root canals done. Each one costs $1425 (root canal $1195 and $230 for the buildup). My insurance paid 60% because the office is not part of the "network." However, I only had $744 remaining of my $1000/year insurance. I will go back in a few weeks to add more injury to my wallet when I get the crowns. The crowns for each tooth will cost $1800. That's a total of $3225 per tooth. The procedure was surprisingly painless and even pleasant. The dentist was very gentle and talked the whole time to his assistant about what he was doing next. He made sure I was completely numb before proceeding. I was happy that my veneers on the teeth were left intact.

With insurance cost me $276 I was not happy paying it, but after reading about the other costs, guess it wasn't to bad. Procedure was long...more complex then initially thought, it was uncomfortable but bearable. Endo was personable and caring...highly touted in my area for being THE place to get quality root canals! Lol! Next is a crown...my dental office quoted around $600-$800...WITH insurance. This is new insurance and I have a year wait period which sucks for the crown. I paid about $170 for a composite (temporary) restoration to the tooth and I hope I save enough for it by then. I also need a dental implant on one of my lower molars, but I think I'll opt for the bridge...if I barely have enough for the crown, I sure won't have enough for the implant over $2000 with insurance.

The procedure itself wasn't horrible, really no pain..took about 90 minutes. I do think the cost is a little high...don't have good insurance. $500 maximum per year and I've already had my checkout come out of that. With the crown, I'm guessing I'll easily have about $1200 out of pocket expense. My tooth wasn't infected...lost the crown with too much tooth attached. Other than pulling the tooth, you really have little choice. Wish dental procedures were included with medical insurance

I haven't had my root canal yet but I'm going tomorrow at 9:00a.m. As for people complaining about the high cost they have a right to complain. I believe that dentist and doctors far too often charge an outlandish price for what they do. Yes, the cost of living has gone up, while the quality of things remains the same. IE... gas is still made like it was 20 yrs. ago, however we pay far more for it. Quiet a ridiculous amount and it doesn't take any more people to produce said gas than it did 20 yrs. ago. Point taken. People raise prices to pad there pockets but the fact remains you can not take money with you when you leave this old world. It is left here to pay your bills or to your family. So case in point why drive up prices so high that insurance companies do not cover all the cost of the procedure. And yes I can say these things... I am a nurse who hasn't had a raise in over 3 yrs. quiet sad isn't it. I take care of people like you every day.
