??? Must’ve been 4-5 teeth at least, or I hope for that amount. I live in US

Nah one tooth, just was without insurance at the time. Root canals and crowns are pricy. Also in the US.

I’m sorry to hear that, in 2019 I had a root canal and gold crown put in on a top molar. Cost about $700 for root canal and another $700 for the crown. I pay out of pocket too

I went with the porcelain/composite crown maybe that’s the price difference (+whatever cost is different between our docs)? I can def remember the root canal itself being like $2000ish though.
