Root Canal Treatment Cost in Allahabad (2026 Guide)
Why Root Canal Cost Matters
If you are suffering from severe tooth pain in Allahabad, your dentist may recommend root canal treatment (RCT). It is a tooth-saving procedure that removes infected pulp and seals the canal. But before booking the procedure, every patient asks one question — how much does it cost?
This 2026 guide gives you complete clarity on RCT cost in Allahabad, the factors that affect pricing, and the questions to ask your dentist.

Factors That Affect Root Canal Cost
- Tooth Position — Back molars have multiple canals and require more time, increasing cost.
- Number of Canals — A 3-canal tooth costs more than a single-canal tooth.
- Single Sitting vs Multiple Sittings — Single-sitting RCT may be marginally more expensive but saves your time.
- Type of Crown — PFM (₹2,500), Zirconia (₹8,000+), Emax (₹12,000+).
- Re-RCT (Retreatment) — More complex than a first-time RCT, hence higher cost.
- Specialist vs General Dentist — Treatment by an MDS endodontist may cost more but ensures higher success rates.

FAQs About RCT Cost in Allahabad
Q. Is single-sitting RCT more expensive than multi-sitting?
Marginally yes — by about ₹500-₹1,500. But it saves you 2 visits.
Q. Is RCT covered under health insurance?
Most Indian health insurance policies cover RCT if hospitalisation is involved. Cashless OPD plans may also cover it. Check your policy.
Q. What if I cannot afford a crown immediately after RCT?
You can delay the crown by 1–2 weeks but not more. Without a crown, the tooth may crack. Ask us about cost-effective PFM crowns.
