How this is calculated
- Total = number of teeth × fee + crown afterwards (usually needed on molars).
- Out-of-pocket = total − insurance or rebate.
- Ranges come from fees published by private practices in each country (research to 7 Sept 2026). An examination and written treatment plan are needed for an exact fee.
Frequently asked questions
Why does the cost of root canal vary so much?
Fees depend on the dentist's experience, your location, the materials and lab used, and how complex your case is. Always ask for an itemised written quote.
Does insurance cover this?
Often partly. Check your policy's annual limit, waiting periods and whether the item is classed as major dental. Enter what you expect back in the rebate field.
Can I pay in instalments?
Most practices offer payment plans or third-party finance. Use the Dental Finance Repayment Calculator to see the monthly figure.
