Root canal therapy is almost always accompanied by a crown. If you're lucky, you probably just need a fill. But chances are, the question you should ask is:
How much is the root canal and crown?
Well, it's easiest to start with "hard costs."
Root canal treatment costs $300 - $2,000. The crown costs $500 - $3,000. If you're one of those lucky people who don't need a crown, the cost of filling your teeth is $90 - $300. That leaves a broad sum for root canal treatment: about $400 - $5,000.
These costs don't take into account dental insurance, dental discounts, or other money-saving strategies we'll talk about in the future. But knowing the parts and the total cost is the first step in driving down prices.
