Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Hello,The fee for an anterior root canal is $885. We also charge for a consult $75 (lowest in the area). If the tooth has been treated before, then a retreatment may be needed which costs 100-150 more. An extraction of any tooth is almost always an option but being that it is one of your front teeth, if its treatable, its USUALLY better to not extract but again, that is up to you. We offer patient financing through Care Credit which may be an option for you also. Call the office (303) 432-ENDO (3636) and we can set up a consult if that''''s all you want to do. This way we can know for sure that you do need a root canal and can also evaluate the difficulty of the case.All the best,Dr. N
