Why Molar Root Canals Can Cost More
Molar teeth typically have more canals and are harder to access, requiring extra time and precision. Treatments that use advanced technology—like laser-assisted root canal therapy or 3D imaging—can also help ensure long-term success, making the investment worthwhile.
Insurance Coverage: What to Expect
Most dental insurance plans cover 50–80% of root canal treatments, depending on your deductible and plan specifics. We’re in-network with many providers and are happy to verify benefits for you ahead of time—so there are no surprises.
Need a crown after the root canal? That restoration is usually billed separately by your general dentist, and we assist in coordinating that smoothly.
