One of the first questions patients ask after being advised a Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is:
"How much will a root canal cost in Delhi?"
The answer is not always straightforward because the cost depends on several factors, including the type of tooth, the complexity of the infection, the technology used, and the expertise of the dentist.
At HealthyGo Dental Hospital, we believe in transparent pricing and helping patients understand what they are paying for. In this guide, we'll explain the average cost of root canal treatment in Delhi, why prices differ from one clinic to another, and what you can expect at our clinic.
Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a procedure that removes infected or damaged pulp from inside a tooth, disinfects the root canals, and seals them to prevent further infection.
The primary goal of RCT is to:
Saving your natural tooth is usually the best long-term option whenever possible.
The cost of Root Canal Treatment in Delhi generally depends on the type of tooth being treated.
| Tooth Type | Average Cost in Delhi |
|---|---|
| Front Tooth (Incisor/Canine) | ₹2,500 – ₹5,000 |
| Premolar | ₹3,000 – ₹6,000 |
| Molar | ₹4,500 – ₹8,500 |
| Re-Root Canal (Retreatment) | ₹6,000 – ₹12,000 |
Note: These prices are for the root canal procedure only. A dental crown, which is often recommended after RCT (especially for premolars and molars), is generally charged separately.
We believe that quality dental care should be affordable and transparent.
| Treatment | Price |
|---|---|
| Front Tooth Root Canal | ₹3,500 onwards |
| Premolar Root Canal | ₹4,500 onwards |
| Molar Root Canal | ₹5,500 onwards |
After a root canal, a crown is usually recommended to protect the treated tooth from fracture.
Our crowns start from:
Our team will explain all suitable options before treatment, so there are no hidden surprises.
Many patients notice that one clinic may charge ₹3,000 while another charges ₹8,000 or more for what seems like the same treatment.
Here are the key reasons:
Front teeth usually have a single canal and are less complex.
Molars often have three or four canals, making treatment more time-consuming and technically demanding.
This is one of the biggest reasons for price variation.
A straightforward root canal costs less than a tooth with:
More complex cases require additional time, expertise, and specialized instruments.
Modern clinics invest in advanced equipment that improves accuracy and patient comfort.
Examples include:
While these technologies increase operational costs, they also improve treatment quality and predictability.
At HealthyGo Dental Hospital, every root canal is performed using Rotary Endodontic Technology along with Digital RVG imaging for greater precision.
An experienced dentist can often diagnose and manage complex cases more efficiently, reducing the likelihood of complications.
Clinics with experienced practitioners or specialist endodontists may charge higher fees due to their expertise.
The quality of materials matters.
Premium biocompatible filling materials and internationally recognized endodontic systems generally cost more but contribute to better long-term outcomes.
Proper sterilization is essential for patient safety.
Reputable clinics invest in:
These practices add to operating costs but help ensure safe treatment.
While cost is an important factor, choosing treatment based solely on the lowest price may not always be the best decision.
A poorly performed root canal can lead to:
When selecting a dental clinic, consider:
Quality treatment can often prevent future complications and additional costs.
In many cases—especially for back teeth—a crown is recommended after root canal treatment.
A crown helps:
Skipping the crown may increase the risk of the tooth breaking under normal chewing forces.
Not necessarily.
The overall cost depends more on:
rather than the number of appointments.
Some teeth can be safely treated in one visit, while others require multiple sittings for the best outcome.
Some health insurance policies and corporate dental plans may provide partial coverage for dental procedures. Coverage varies depending on the insurer and the policy terms.
Patients are advised to check with their insurance provider regarding eligibility and reimbursement.

The cost typically ranges from ₹3,500 to ₹8,500, depending on the tooth and complexity of the treatment.
Molars usually have multiple canals, making the procedure more complex and time-consuming.
In most clinics, including HealthyGo Dental Hospital, the crown is charged separately because patients may choose different crown materials.
Modern root canal treatment is performed under local anesthesia and is generally no more uncomfortable than getting a dental filling.
With proper treatment, a well-fitted crown, and good oral hygiene, a root canal-treated tooth can last for many years.
