What Affects the Cost of Pulpectomy Therapy?

Several variables influence the final cost of pulpectomy treatment:

  • Tooth Type and Location: Molars are typically more complex and may cost more than front teeth or primary (baby) teeth.
  • Extent of Decay or Infection: If the tooth is severely decayed or shows signs of pulpitis or early abscess formation, additional steps may be needed.
  • Restorative Needs: The cost can vary depending on whether the tooth is restored with a simple filling or requires a dental crown afterward.
  • Sedation Options: While local anesthesia is included, the use of nitrous oxide or oral sedation for anxious patients may add to the total cost.
  • Type of provider: Endodontists (root canal specialists)  or Pediatric dentists may charge more than general dentists.
  • Advanced Diagnostic imaging: CBCT scans may be needed to plan the procedure accurately.

Is Pulpectomy Covered by Insurance?

Most dental insurance plans in Ontario do provide partial coverage for pulpectomy treatment, especially when the procedure is considered medically necessary.

If you’re eligible for the Canada Dental Care Plan (CDCP), it can cover a portion of the cost of pulpectomy therapy, depending on your age, income, and treatment requirements.

Always check your specific policy or the CDCP website for the most accurate coverage details.
