Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.
The cost of the root canals is around $1,200 each. This does not include the final restoration of the teeth wich will be $1,350 each. Your total for both teeth would be around $5,100. If you have dental insurance they might pay a considerable portion of this amount. I hope this helps and let us know if we can be of service!

are they 4 canals or 3 canals per tooth???after the root canal you will need a build-up and a crown assuming i can agree that there is enough tooth structure left to make these teeth restorable.If you are interested or are looking at other options such as implants please contact my office, I can help you.
