How does the cost of say root canal treatment compare? I am arriving with no job, so no cover at it - just in case that has any affect on the answers.
I had a root canal filling done yesterday in Edmonton. It cost $1190 for three canals. The original quote I was given was $1492 for four canals. I was referred on by my dentist to an Endodontist to have this done as it was a previous botched job done by my UK dentist!

Thankfully it was covered 100% by our health plan.

Well I have just come back and I am in agony. So far the root canal and cap is progressing and I should be able to get that done. The only thing I will be left with is my wisdom tooth, which I will ask her at my next visit and see if she thinks I should go somewhere else and get it taken out.

Thanks everyone, the costs posters have quoted is a lot less than I thought, so if I have to have it done there, then so be it.
