The cost varies depending on how complex the problem is and which tooth is affected. Molars are more difficult to treat; the fee is usually more. Most dental insurance policies provide some coverage for endodontic treatment.
Generally, endodontic treatment and restoration of the natural tooth are less expensive than the alternative of having the tooth extracted. An extracted tooth must be replaced with an implant or bridge to restore chewing function and prevent adjacent teeth from shifting. These procedures tend to cost more than endodontic treatment and appropriate restoration.
Payment in full is expected at the time services are rendered. Payment may be made by cash, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or Care Credit.
As a courtesy to you, insurance forms will be completed and filed for you without charge. We are happy to help you receive the maximum benefits; however, the agreement of the insurance to pay for your dental care is a contract between you and your insurance company. Insurance companies may reimburse at a lower rate than we estimate. When this occurs, you may be required to pay an additional “after-insurance” balance.
Every attempt will be made to provide the insurance with any requested records they may ask of us to ensure your insurance pays what we estimate on your treatment plan. If insurance will not pay after six months with our records of working with your insurance we will bill you and let you know your insurance is not paying and leave you the option to pay the balance and contact your insurance for reimbursement or to contact your insurance and request they process your claim for our office to settle your account.
