Root canal treatment in Lutsk
Root canal treatment lets you keep a tooth when inflammation has reached the nerve. We explain how it goes and why the price depends on the number of canals.

In brief
- The price list has separate items by number of canals: 1, 2, 3 or 4.
- For difficult cases there is treatment with magnification and retreatment.
- After root canal treatment the tooth usually needs a filling or a crown.
Inside the tooth root there are canals with the nerve and blood vessels (the pulp). When decay or a crack reaches the pulp, inflammation develops. Without treatment the infection can pass beyond the root tip and cause swelling or a cyst.
Root canal treatment is the removal of inflamed pulp, cleaning of the canals and filling them. It lets you keep your own tooth instead of extracting it. Afterwards the tooth must be protected with a filling or a crown.
Signs that call for a consultation
- Strong spontaneous or night-time toothache
- Pain when biting
- Swelling of the gum or cheek, a fistula
- The tooth has darkened
- An X-ray shows a dark spot at the root
How it works at Dentika
- Diagnostics. Examination and a targeted X-ray: the doctor assesses the number and condition of the canals.
- Anaesthesia. Treatment is done under local anaesthesia.
- Opening and cleaning. The doctor opens the tooth, removes the pulp and cleans the canals with instruments and antiseptics.
- Filling the canals. The canals are filled with a special material to prevent re-infection; if needed over several visits.
- Restoring the tooth. A filling is placed or the tooth is prepared for a crown so that it does not break.
What affects the cost
- Number of canals: in the price list teeth with 1, 2, 3 and 4 canals are priced differently
- Difficulty: narrow or curved canals, treatment with magnification
- Retreatment: redoing a previous treatment, removing a post or a broken instrument
- The later restoration of the tooth — a filling or crown — is paid separately
Aftercare
- Temporary discomfort when biting is possible after treatment — tell the doctor if it does not go away
- Do not chew on this tooth until the permanent filling or crown is placed
- Do not delay restoring the tooth: without it, it may break
- Brush as usual; contact us if swelling appears or pain gets worse

Questions and answers
How much does root canal treatment cost?
In the 2026–2027 price list canal filling is shown by the number of canals in the tooth; for complex cases there are separate items (magnification, retreatment). The doctor names the final amount after diagnostics.
Is root canal treatment painful?
Treatment is done under local anaesthesia. Short-lived discomfort after the procedure is possible — it depends on the condition of the tissues; the doctor will advise what to do.
How many visits are needed?
It depends on the tooth and the inflammation: sometimes one visit is enough, sometimes several. The doctor gives the plan after examination.
Can the tooth be left without a crown?
Often a tooth after root canal treatment needs a crown or a large filling because it becomes more brittle. The decision depends on the tooth and the load — the doctor makes it.
