Root Canal Treatment cost in Hyderabad, India, is a frequently asked question by many patients. It is difficult to say the exact cost of RCT of teeth because multiple factors influence the price of Root Canal Treatment which we are going to discuss here.
Tooth decay is caused by bacteria and the acids produced by these bacteria erode tooth enamel. This decay can progress deep in to the vascular and nerve supply of the tooth if left untreated quickly. Various stages of tooth decay includes initial demineralization of the enamel, enamel decay, dentin involvement and pulp infection. Early stages of tooth decay are often asymptomatic and the treatment varies based on severity. For early decay, improving oral hygiene and fluoride use can help remineralize teeth. Teeth cavities may require fillings and advanced cases might need root canals to treat infected pulp, followed by crowns for protection. So, when tooth decay has reached the pulp, severe tooth pain is the most common symptom and the tooth needs ROOT CANAL TREATMENT to save it. Regular dental check-ups aid in early detection and less invasive treatments. Preventive measures and prompt intervention are vital to halt tooth decay’s advancement.
RCT or Root Canal Treatment is a dental procedure used to treat a tooth with infected or damaged pulp and eliminate the bacteria. During RCT, the infected pulp is removed, and the interior of the tooth is cleaned, disinfected and sealed with gutta-percha, a rubber like material, to prevent further infection. This procedure saves the infected natural tooth and a crown is usually placed on the RCT treated tooth to strengthen it. Root Canal Treatment when performed by an experienced endodontist (Root Canal Specialist), has a high success rate and restores the appearance and function of the tooth, preventing the need for extraction. RCT is a painless procedure and is performed by senior endodontists at FMS Dental.

Laser Root Canal Treatment is more efficient, effective and comfortable compared to the traditional RCT. Laser RCT is used to remove the inflamed or infected pulp and to even clean and shape the dentinal walls of the root canals. The success rate of root canal therapy is increased by Lasers.
Some of the Advantages of Laser assisted root canal treatment are:

The cost of Root Canal Treatment depends on the condition of tooth and the severity of infection involved. Root canal treatment cost can be decided by some of the factors as mentioned below:
The cost is higher for back teeth compared to front teeth as the posterior teeth have more number of roots and root canals.

Root Canal Treatment cost is also a decided by factors like technology and materials used in treating the infected tooth for rotary endodontic systems, Protaper Files / Guttapercha etc.
Laser assisted Root Canal Treatment ensures better disinfection and microbe free environment. CT guided Root Canal Treatment gives 3D view of the tooth, along with any accessory root canals and the extent of infection in the bone as well. The outcome and effectiveness of root canal procedure increases by as precision magnification of the tooth up to 3x to 15x is enabled by microscopic endodontics. Such techniques when involved in Root Canal Treatment, the cost of RCT may increase.
Post and core build-up of the root canal treated tooth might be necessary if there is an inadequate amount of sound tooth remaining for a crown to be placed. Additional costs can be incurred for this procedure and this helps to achieve better retention of crown, furthermore to redistribute stresses down onto the root. This reduces the risk of fracture of the root canal treated tooth.
