Is €1,900 expensive for a root canal & crown?

It is definitely on the expensive side. In the US many people use a dental plan to reduce their costs. For example, this lady was facing a similar bill: http://dentalcool.blogspot.com/2009/10/surprise-crown-work-quote-3500-how-to.html then she saved about $1000 with a plan.

Can anyone recommend an endodontist north or south of the border. My own dentist happy for me to go either direction. He is also normally happy to do root canal treatment himself if he thinks it is straight forward but has recommended I go to an endodontist.

Would be grateful for recommendations but must be a qualified endodontist. Thanks

i had the same thing.. regular dentist was unavailable for 2 weeks so i had to go to another practice in dublin fingal area as my filling had fallen out... was told i needed a crown and rootcanal for 1300 immediately or the world would end.. he said he could do it immediately... i said thanks but I would get my regular dentist to do it.. regular dentist took an xray said no need for at least a year....and beyond .... always get a second opinion and then decide whether you want to or not...
