root canal price in Little Rock

The Price of a Root Canal Procedure in Little Rock

Schedule an appointment with your Little Rock dentist to learn what costs you can expect with a root canal procedure.

While it is possible to find some helpful information about root canals by doing a little research, each patient’s needs are very different. This means that root canal prices in Little Rock can vary depending on the specifics of your dental care needs. The good news is that you gain valuable oral health benefits from this procedure, making it well worth your investment.

Your Initial Root Canal Consultation

Many patients learn they need a root canal at their six-month checkup or during an emergency exam prompted by pain. During your consultation, your dentist will take X-rays and conduct all of the necessary diagnostic work to determine if a root canal is the best option for you. If a root canal is recommended, that means an infection has gone too far and needs to be treated immediately.

After your root canal, you may receive a prescription for antibiotics to ward off potential infections. Pain relievers can also help reduce some of the inflammation that can cause discomfort.

What Is the Root Canal Price in Little Rock?

The costs of a root canal procedure most often fall in the range of $500 to $1000 per tooth. Here is a breakdown of costs for based on average pricing:

  • The post and core component, which works to provide the support and strength for your tooth, generally costs about $250 to $350.
  • Pulp vitality testing—a component of this procedure—costs about $50.
  • The pulp-capping component costs $75, but this does not include additional restorations (like fillings or dental crowns).
  • If your dentist needs to revise previous root canal treatments, the cost can range from $600 to $900.
  • If you have a root canal obstruction, it can cost about $400.

The price of a root canal also varies depending on the tooth that requires treatment. Most anterior teeth—like your incisors, cuspids, and canines—cost less than your molars, which can cost up to $1400 because they are more difficult to treat. In your initial consultation, your dentist will be able to break down the price for you in a procedure estimate, including the costs covered by your insurance policy.

If you avoid treating a tooth that needs a root canal, know that tooth extractions and the costs related to replacing the tooth are much higher than the price of a root canal. In other words, undergoing a root canal is money well spent.
