    Hi Sean

    probably 500-600 give or take, you may also have to pay extra for a filling, post or crown depending on the nature of the problem

    hope this helps

    Just paid €550 for an upper tooth (between front and molar)

    My Polish friends tell me its €25 in Poland. You would have a good holiday in Poland and get your root canal done and you would still have change out of 500-600.

    No doubt about it Sam, you would have a good holiday but a bad root canal.

    Probably end up with half a dozen root canals, some fillings and some crowns. Maybe at bargain prices but defo at high speed (got to get it done while your there, cant wait for healing or other such inconveniences) = low quality. You only get one chance to get the job done right first time. Re-treatment of poor endodontics later is more expensive again. Buy cheap buy twice.

    €25 for a root canal in Poland. Great price. A completed root canal would take 2 hours approx so the dentist is taking in 12.50 per hour gross, before any staff , materials, rent or tax paid

    Dont know about you but I would worry how he/she could survive on less than minimum wage. You get what you pay for!

    Agree with the posters here, I needed a specialist to do mine and it cost €1600 but he did a great job (to the lay person i.e. me).

    I have just paid €700 for a root canal on an upper molar, the crown will be another €600/700.

    I know that some dentists have reduced their prices around Dublin so worth checking around!
