How Much Does a Root Canal Cost in Austin?

A root canal is often the only way to save a natural tooth that has been badly infected. Many patients worry about the cost, but it is typically much more affordable than extracting the tooth and replacing it with an implant.

Factors Influencing Cost

The price of a root canal varies depending on:

  • Tooth Location: Molars (back teeth) have more roots and are more complex to treat than front teeth.
  • Severity: How deep the infection goes.
  • Insurance: Most PPO plans cover a significant portion (50-80%) of the procedure.
