    Just looking for a bit of advise:
    I have been quoted these prices from a practice in Dublin- Not sure if it's a specialist but the qualifications of person are B.A., B.Dent. Sc.

    ----
    Molar right upper root canal 650 Euros
    Ceremic crown 850 Euros
    prophylacitc cleaning 75 Euros
    Composite 2 surfaces posterior 110 Euros

    Have paid about 45 euros for initial consultation including X-Rays.

    Are these prices ok ? It's my first experience with dentists and seems pricey.

    is it the same dentist doing all of the work?

    I would imagine its a general dentist.

    After having 2 myself from the same specialist I would go down a specialist route if i needed to again., however it really comes down the the dentist experience how successful the RC will be.

    On the crown front.
    for my first RC my general dentist did the crown, it works.
    For my second, a specialist did it, looking at the 2 of them is night and day tbh. so really depends what your budget is

    Have you used this dentist before for anything?

    Not withstanding the above points, the prices for a dublin dentist do not seem way off average. They are neither cheap nor expensive for that work (assuming a good quality result). The initial consult was pretty cheap
