When it comes to dental pricing, there’s rarely a straight answer. If you’ve either asked Google for answers or requested an exact figure from a dental professional, you’re likely familiar with the phrase ‘it depends’.

Today, in a rare turn of events, we’re going to tackle your pricing enquiries head-on. So, pull up your budgeting spreadsheet and prepare yourself for not only some workable ballpark figures but also some actual price listings — accurate to the dollar!

How Much for a General Check-Up & Clean?

At Abbotsford Dental, your biannual check-up and cleaning will set you back $261 per visit. However, you can slash $23 off that price when you take advantage of our new patient promotion. That’s right: new patients need only pay $238 for their first visit! Plus, this new patient promo also includes X-rays and a 3D bite assessment. Have you become an Abbotsford patient yet?

How Much for Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment is hard to put an exact price on, but the ballpark figure is between $1,100 and $1,800. Perhaps the most complex form of general dentistry, root canal treatment can vary in price depending on the condition of the tooth involved — and how many canals require filling. Once a dental professional has removed the tooth of infected pulp, re-filled the canal with gutta-percha, and re-sealed the tooth with a dental crown, costs can add up — especially if the process is repeated multiple times. Speak to your dentist about a down-to-the-dollar price tailored to your situation.

How Much for a Tooth Extraction?

Tooth extraction costs vary, too, ranging between $227 and $571. The final cost will depend on the tooth’s condition and how hard it is to extract. Tooth extraction is a last-resort option, and we wouldn’t do it if it weren’t absolutely necessary. Your dentist may discuss alternative options with you before recommending removal.

How Much for Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns cost $1,844 per tooth. This price also applies to our CEREC® options, which, thanks to the latest advancements in dental restoration technology, can be ready on the day you order them. So, whether you want to wait for your crown using the classic method or get your smile sorted in a single appointment, the final cost of your crown will remain the same.

How Much for Dental Implants?

Dental implants are another complex treatment, ranging between $5,500 and $6,500, depending on this complexity. The reason they cost the most is because they not only involve crown placement — a $1,844 venture in and of itself — but they also involve invasive surgery. After putting you under general anaesthesia (the strongest form of sleep dentistry available), your dentist or dental surgeon will place the implants inside your jawbone — think of them as substitute tooth roots. Made from virtually indestructible titanium, implants are an ideal base for upholding dental crowns.

How Much for Dental Veneers?

At $1,537 per tooth, dental veneers can get you that classic Hollywood smile. Veneers are porcelain or composite resin shells that mask tooth exteriors, hiding chips and cracks, wear and tear, unsightly stains, and imperfect spacing. While composite resin is great for beginners, purists prefer porcelain, which resists stains and endures longer — about 15 years, in fact. If you’ve got some spare cash, we can make your cosmetic dental dreams a reality. Speak to your dentist about aesthetic options.
