About this treatment

A root canal (endodontic treatment) saves a tooth whose nerve is inflamed or infected due to a deep cavity, fracture or trauma. We remove the affected tissue, clean and seal the canals, and your tooth can keep doing its job for many years. With modern anesthesia and precision techniques, the procedure is far more comfortable than you imagine — and root canal treatment in Colombia costs a fraction of typical US and UK prices, which is why many visitors resolve a painful tooth during their stay in Bogotá.

Frequently asked questions

What patients ask us

Does a root canal hurt? +

No. With modern anesthesia the procedure is comfortable — in fact, the root canal is what eliminates the pain caused by the inflamed or infected nerve.

How many visits does a root canal take? +

Many cases are resolved in one or two visits, depending on the tooth's complexity and the state of the infection — which makes it feasible during a trip to Bogotá. You get an exact schedule at your evaluation.

What happens if I don't treat it? +

The infection can spread to the bone, cause abscesses and lead to losing the tooth. Treating it in time is the simplest — and cheapest — way to keep it.

Is the tooth weaker after a root canal? +

The tooth can become more fragile, which is why we restore it with a filling or crown depending on the case, to bring back its strength and function.

How much does a root canal cost in Bogotá? +

The price depends on the tooth (molars have more canals) and the restoration needed. You receive a written, personalized quote at your evaluation. As a reference, a root canal starts from $250 USD.
