What is a root canal?

A root canal removes infected or inflamed pulp from inside a tooth, then cleans, disinfects and seals the canals. It is done to save a natural tooth that would otherwise need to come out. Most back teeth need a crown afterward.

Root canal: specialist or general dentist?

Many general dentists perform root canals, especially on front teeth and premolars. Endodontists are root canal specialists with 2–3 extra years of training. They are often recommended for molars with curved or hidden canals, retreatments, and teeth with unusual anatomy.

13 of Louisville's 138 clinics offering root canals have an endodontist on staff. See endodontists in Louisville

How much does a root canal cost in Louisville?

Typical ranges in USD for Louisville, KY. Your price depends on the tooth, the case and the clinic.

Basis: DentistsRanked estimate from typical fees, adjusted for Kentucky. Ask the clinic for a written estimate.

Do general dentists in Louisville do root canals?

Yes. 125 of the 138 Louisville clinics offering root canals do not list an endodontist, so general dentists there typically provide it. 13 list an endodontist on staff. Typical reasons to see an endodontist: molars, retreatment of an earlier root canal, calcified or curved canals, or when your dentist refers you.

Which Louisville clinics offer same-day root canals?

1 of 138 Louisville clinics offering root canals lists same-day or emergency appointments, led by DENISTS. Same-day treatment depends on the diagnosis and the schedule, so call ahead to confirm before you go.

Is a root canal covered by insurance or Medicaid in Kentucky?

Many dental insurance plans cover root canals as basic or major care, often at 50–80% after the deductible, up to the annual maximum. The crown is usually billed separately. Medicaid coverage for adults varies by state.

Does a root canal hurt?

Most patients say a root canal feels similar to getting a filling, because the tooth is numbed with local anesthetic. The infection beforehand is often more painful than the procedure. Mild soreness for a few days afterward is common and usually eases with over-the-counter pain relief.

Which Louisville root canal dentists are open on Saturday?

13 of 138 Louisville clinics offering root canals list Saturday hours, including DENISTS, Embrace Dental Care and Aspen Dental. Hours come from each clinic's listing; check with the clinic before you go, since holiday and summer hours can change.
