Experiencing the signs and symptoms above could very well indicate that an infection within the tooth is present, and as the pulp is made up of soft tissue that contains the nerves and blood vessels, once it’s infected, it begins to die.
Therefore, it’s essential that if you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, to address them very quickly, as the situation could lead to the loss of the tooth.
Additionally, infected root canals often lead to dental abscesses when left untreated.
The cost of a root canal typically depends on the tooth being treated. The larger the tooth, the more root canals it has, which will be slightly more complicated, resulting in a higher cost.
Typically, patients can expect root canal treatment to cost from £950, with 0% financing options over 12 months to help patients manage the cost. If you need a dental crown following treatment, an additional fee of £20.60 can be expected.
We understand that even the thought of a root canal can make patients feel uneasy – especially if they’ve had prior poor dental experiences. And we get it; the procedure doesn’t sound easy, breezy. But on the day, you’ll understand that it is – and we’ll be with you every step of the way to ensure you feel comfortable. For extremely phobic patients, we offer two types of dental sedation, from inhalation to IV sedation, which will completely relax you during your appointment. Ask us about sedation.
While we offer an online booking scheduler for patients to book an appointment online, like a check-up, this option is currently unavailable for booking root canals as you’ll require a check-up first.
Patients can book a check-up online, costing from £80 for a new patient and £65 for a registered patient. Or contact us to book an appointment by calling, emailing, or chatting on Live Chat (Mon-Fri 09.00 am-5.30 pm).
Pulp infections can sometimes be symptomless. In fact, it’s not uncommon for patients to be unaware that there’s a problem at all – and in these instances, pulp infections are only spotted when we take an x-ray during your check-up appointment, which is why it’s important to have them regularly. We’ll diagnose any problems with your teeth and our dentists will consider whether root canal treatment is the appropriate next step.
A root canal procedure typically takes around an hour to complete, where the dentist will remove the infected pulp from the root canal.
Here are the typical steps we’ll follow:
Following the procedure, a temporary filling is placed. Which then, a few weeks later, is typically replaced by a permanent crown to protect the tooth.
Having a dental crown fitted will incur an additional cost, but completing your restoration might not always be necessary.
That said, dental crowns will increase the tooth’s survival rate, and most patients who opt not to have one will typically have their tooth removed at some stage.
MyoDental patients can pay with interest-free dental finance over 12 months and place an initial 20% deposit.

Interest-bearing terms are available up to 60 months.
Alternatively, when booking an appointment, patients can pay a deposit and the final amount at the end of their procedure.
