Root canal treatment involves removing infected or damaged pulp (the soft tissue inside the tooth, including nerves and blood vessels), cleaning and disinfecting the root canal, and then filling and sealing it. The goal is to preserve the natural tooth's function while eliminating pain and infection. Groups prone to needing root canal treatment include those at high risk for cavities, patients with periodontal disease, individuals with dental trauma, those with multiple dental restorations, and people with weakened immune systems.

In Hong Kong, the cost of root canal treatment varies depending on the tooth's position, the treatment's complexity, and the type of clinic (private or public). Below is a rough cost estimate:

1.Anterior Tooth Root Canal Treatment

Private Clinics: Approximately HKD 6,000–10,000.

2.Molar Root Canal Treatment

Private Clinics: Approximately HKD 8,000–15,000, with higher costs for complex cases.

3.Other Related Costs

Dental Crowns: HKD 4,000–15,000 (depending on materials such as ceramic or metal).

X-rays and Diagnostics: HKD 500–1,500.
