How much does a root canal cost?

Dental root canal is a very important treatment for pulpitis and apical periodontitis. The price of a dental root canal is directly related to the location of the tooth, the number of root canals, and the fee level of the area where the hospital is located. Root canal treatment for front teeth in a medium level hospital usually costs around$300 for one root canal if hand instruments are used. For posterior teeth, the price is around$1000 for 3-4 root canals. If you choose to use machine-operated instruments for root canal treatment, a single root canal for anterior teeth is around 800 RMB, and 3-4 root canals for posterior teeth are usually around 2500 RMB. If root canal treatment is performed in major cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, it usually costs more than 1,000 RMB for the front teeth and basically around 3,000 RMB for the back teeth.
