    So I’m just out of the dentist for my second root canal visit, and at the very end I was told I’ll need a 3rd visit as the cavity was bigger than they thought.

    Costing upwards of €800+ for one tooth.

    Did this sound right or? I was never told that it would go over 2 visits so I am a bit annoyed

    Sounds right I paid €900 about 12 years ago but that did include the a cap for the tooth also.

    Surely in 12 years technology would have advanced slightly?!

    Anyways, good to know. At least I don’t feel ripped off. Probably should have just taken the tooth out! Thanks a mil!

    Technology has advanced, but evolution has stalled.

    Thank you all for the replies. So I guess €800 is in the normal pricing range.

    Braces next! I was quoted €3,500 so I guess I better round it to €5000 ha
