Endodontic treatment is a complex procedure and the cost will vary depending on the tooth, difficulty of the treatment and number of appointments required. In general, back teeth (molars and premolars) are more difficult to treat than front teeth due to their multi-rooted anatomy. During your consultation, all of the costs associated with your root treatment will be discussed with you.
Endodontic treatment is usually a cheaper alternative to the costs of an extraction and replacement with an artificial tooth (implant). Most dental health policies provide some coverage for endodontic treatment.
Tony Appleton dedicates a large percentage of his practice to endodontics but many years ago elected not to become a Specialist Endodontist, preferring to pursue his interest in root canal treatments whilst also enjoying other aspects of patient care. His fees for endodontic treatments are consequently lower than those charged by most registered specialists but this discrepancy in charges does not reflect any lack of experience, training or investment in advanced endodontic technology on Tony’s behalf.
If we are there, or nearby, we will see you!
We will always try to offer you a same day appointment if you have an emergency so if you or someone you know has a problem please call us.
We offer a comprehensive emergency service for our registered and current patients with phone access to our dentists available until 9.30pm each day.
For genuine emergencies we will re-open the practice outside normal working hours and you will be advised of the call-out fee by the dentist on call. If you choose to proceed please note that all fees for the call-out and treatment provided must be paid for in full at the time. This enables us to provide this additional service to our patients and we appreciate your understanding.
