Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Cost Estimate: $950
Hi, Our office charges $950 for a root canal on #30. Please keep in mind, however, that depending on the complexity of the case (root morphology, calcification of root canals and pulp chamber, etc, etc...), this case may or may not be referred to a specialist. If an outside specialist is recommended, their fee may be different and most likely slightly higher.Also keep in mind that after a tooth has had a root canal treatment, the standard of care is to close off the hole with a filling, and place a crown over the tooth to give it structural integrity. The cost would be $319 and $975, respectively.Please give us a call if you would like to set-up a free consultation. Our number is (510) 651-0833.Regards, Dr. Leroy Owyangwww.leroyowyangdds.com

Cost Estimate: $750
Dear future patient,The cost for a molar root canal is rougly about $750 in our office. Molar root canal is usually a little more expensive than the front tooth root canal. Most office can cost up to $1100 for such a procedure. But we still need to look at your x ray first before any accurate price quote. ThanksDr. Cheng and staff
