Root Canal

Cost: 

$200-$300 USD per tooth. (Depends on the number of internal canals)

Typical Duration: 

2 hours if tooth is not infected. It can be up to 6 days divided into two appointments if there is an active infection. If the tooth is infected, medication has to be applied “in situ” (inside each canal) to exterminate bacterial activity. This is the time it takes to obtain an adequate sterile environment. Oral or IM Antibiotics help a lot in this situation but cannot get inside the canal. Therefore, the internal canal medication is mandatory. *Time frame is also subject to schedule availability
