Root Canal Cost in London

Root canal treatment cost varies depending on which tooth needs treatment. Front teeth (incisors and canines) have a single canal and are the most straightforward to treat, with prices starting from £695. Premolars typically have 1-2 canals and cost from £795, while molars—with their 3-4 canals and complex anatomy—cost from £895.

At Wimpole Street Medical & Dental, we believe in transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Our offers 50% off most dental treatments, making private root canal treatment more accessible. We also offer 0% interest finance over 12 months, so you can spread the cost of treatment without delay.

The Bottom Line

Where possible, saving your natural tooth with root canal treatment is usually the better choice both clinically and financially. An implant is an excellent solution when a tooth can't be saved, but nothing truly replaces your natural tooth. We'll always give you honest advice about the best option for your specific situation.

What's Included in Your Root Canal Cost

No hidden fees. No surprise charges. Complete transparency from diagnosis to recovery.

Diagnostic X-Rays

Digital X-rays to assess the tooth and plan treatment. Charged at £20 each (£20).

Local Anaesthesia

Effective numbing so you feel comfortable throughout the procedure.

Complete Root Treatment

Thorough cleaning, shaping and filling of all canals in the tooth.

Temporary Restoration

Temporary filling placed after treatment to protect the tooth.

Follow-Up Appointment
