Root canal treatment Many patients have experienced the pain of seeing a tooth, to be honest, it is really bad to see a tooth, as a dentist, although I also did not suffer from tooth pain. As a dentist, I have never suffered from tooth pain, but I can feel from the bottom of my heart that toothache is not a disease, but a pain that kills. When a tooth is in pain, many doctors will recommend root canal treatment, which is often referred to as nerve extraction and root canal. In fact, many people don’t understand why they can’t just fill the hole in their teeth, but must choose to extract the nerve. In fact, if the tooth is in severe pain, then it means that you have missed the best opportunity for filling treatment, then the best time for treatment has been missed and you have to choose another treatment option, which is professionally known as root canal treatment. If a tooth needs root canal treatment, then usually the cost of this treatment is much higher than the cost of a filling. Take Guangzhou private dental clinic as an example, if a tooth is decayed but not painful, the cost should be about 200~600 dollars if it only needs to be filled (except for inlays). However, if root canal treatment is needed to extract the nerve, then the cost will rise to 1000~5000 dollars. So why is the cost of root canal treatment so expensive? Here I would like to explain to you how the root canal treatment is charged. First of all, root canal treatment is divided into tooth position and number of roots, which means that the whole mouth teeth are divided into 3 categories: anterior teeth, premolar teeth and molar teeth. Anterior teeth are the least expensive because of their simplicity, followed by premolar teeth, and molar teeth are the most expensive because of their complicated roots and inconvenient operation. In addition, if the tooth has had a root canal before, but the tooth is not completely treated, resulting in re-inflammation, then the cost of the second root canal treatment is more expensive than the first, mainly because the second treatment is more difficult.
