Average cost dental work Greensboro NC- or anywhere?
I was just curious about the average dental costs in my area. I don't mind paying- I just want to make sure that the dentist I have chosen does not charge twice the local rate for things. Here are the proposed costs: Sedation- $325 (triazolam) root canal $977 Crown $895 Build up $85 Porcelain restoration (fillings) $225 I appreciate any input- thanks! yes- sedation was an option being that i get a little freaked out by dental work (hence my avoiding dentist x many years= a mouthful of work to be done) they said doing it in one day was possible. the tooth needing a rc is not infected or swollen. thanks so much for your answer.

Those fees are average for the country. This does depend on the types of materials being used for the crown and the build up though. The fees for these things in our office are as follows: root canal on molar: $925.00 gold crown on molar $1,071.00 (same for porcelain fused to gold) Build up $ 228.00 Resin fillings vary by size and tooth--range is : $161-297 (we are located in Orange County CA--nothing like the tv shows, believe me) But I am curious as to why you are being sedated? Does he/she plan on doing all of it at the same time? I suggest forgoing the sedation and having these procedures done over a period of time. The root canal first, then the filling, then the crown and build up. You should always wait about two weeks after a root canal is completed before starting the crown for it. You can have the filling done in the meantime though. And root canals generally take more than one appointment. Good Luck
