In Ontario, the cost of a root canal with a crown is not a fixed price and varies based on several individual factors. At Smilo Family Dental, pricing is determined by your specific needs rather than a standard list.

Key factors that influence the total cost include:

• Tooth Location: Molars often have multiple canals and more complex anatomy, making them more expensive to treat than front teeth.
• Complexity of the Case: The number of canals involved and the severity of the infection play a significant role in determining the price.
• The Dental Crown: A crown is typically required after a root canal to protect and strengthen the tooth, which adds to the overall expense.
• Sedation: If you choose to use sedation for your comfort, this will increase the total cost of the procedure.

Insurance and Payments Most dental insurance plans in Ontario cover between 50% and 80% of the root canal cost after the deductible is met. To provide clarity, providers typically offer a thorough exam and a personalized quote. Saving the natural tooth is often considered the more cost-effective long-term investment compared to extraction, which may eventually require more expensive replacements like implants or bridges.
