Commonly called a root canal, root canal treatment is a type of endodontic therapy that is often recommended if the tooth pulp and nerves become infected or damaged. This may occur if injury or decay reaches deep into the tooth, past the outer enamel layer. When left untreated, this type of infection and disease may cause the tooth to die and necessitate tooth extraction. To restore the health of the tooth and avoid the need for extraction, our skilled dentist will remove the infected and injured tissues from within the tooth, clean the tooth, and fill it with a medicated material. We will then cap the tooth with a restoration, such as a dental crown, to return the tooth to its original shape and structure. In most cases, a root canal can be completed in only one or two comfortable visits to our office.

To learn more about root canal treatment, we welcome you to contact us today. We are committed to restoring your smile’s health.
The cost of root canal therapy at Birch Family Dental ranges from $40-50 per month with financing options, with the total investment varying based on which tooth requires treatment, the complexity of the case, and whether additional procedures like a crown are needed afterward. While front teeth generally cost less to treat than molars with multiple canals, each situation is unique and requires personalized assessment. We recommend scheduling a consultation for an accurate quote based on your specific needs.
Key Factors Affecting Root Canal Costs:
- Tooth Location: Front teeth versus premolars or molars with multiple root canals.
- Case Complexity: Retreatment or unusual anatomy may increase treatment difficulty.
- Additional Procedures: Post-treatment restorations like crowns typically incur separate costs.
