Location of the tooth affects the cost slightly. Teeth in the front of the mouth are easier to access and treat, whereas molar teeth in the back of the mouth may be more difficult to access and therefore may cost a little more to treat. Having dental insurance will help cover a portion of the cost of your treatment or possibly the entire amount. Root Canal Treatment is considered a basic service and is often covered by insurance. As the amount of coverage varies from plan to plan, be sure to find out from your insurance provider how much you are eligible for before going ahead with dental treatment. The tooth being treated with a root canal will also require a large filling to fill the hole drilled by the dentist. It may also require a dental crown. Dental crowns are needed in cases where the tooth sustains heavy biting force such as a molar or premolar, or is heavily restored, or has a crack. Therefore, you should plan for the dental filling and/or dental crown. If you or someone you know has a chipped or damaged tooth, or believe it is infected, come to Ideal Endodontics today!
