Root Canal Cost in Saket (2026): ₹3,000–₹5,000
An RCT at 32 Diamonds Clinic in Saket costs ₹3,000–₹5,000 per tooth. Here's what affects the price, what treatment feels like and how recovery goes.
How much does a root canal cost in Saket?
A root canal (RCT) at 32 Diamonds Clinic in Saket costs ₹3,000 to ₹5,000 per tooth. The exact price depends on which tooth needs treatment and how many canals it has. We tell you the final figure after an examination and X-ray, before any work begins — and share a written estimate so there are no surprises on the bill.
What affects the cost of a root canal
Which tooth it is: a front tooth usually has one canal, a molar can have three or four, and more canals means more chair time. How badly the tooth is infected: a long-standing infection or abscess may need an extra visit. Whether it is a repeat RCT: re-treating a tooth treated elsewhere is more complex. Whether you need a cap: back teeth usually need a crown after RCT, and the crown material (metal, ceramic, zirconia) changes the price. Compared with losing the tooth and replacing it with an implant or bridge, an RCT is good value.
What is a root canal, and when do you need one?
A root canal removes infected or inflamed pulp (the nerve and blood vessels) from inside a tooth, then cleans, disinfects and seals it, saving a tooth that would otherwise be pulled out. Signs include sharp or throbbing toothache (especially when biting or at night), sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers, a darkened tooth, swelling or a pimple-like bump on the gum, or a deep cavity or crack. These signs don't always mean RCT — an examination and X-ray tell us whether a filling is enough.
Does a root canal hurt?
With modern local anaesthesia, a root canal should feel much like a regular filling. Most patients say the toothache before treatment was far worse. The steps: examination and X-ray, numbing until the tooth is fully numb, a small opening to remove the infected pulp and clean the canals, filling and sealing the canals with a temporary filling on top, and finally a cap if needed. Most root canals take one to two visits of about 45–90 minutes each.
Recovery after a root canal
Most people go back to work or college the same day. Avoid eating for the first 2–3 hours until numbness wears off. Mild tenderness when chewing is normal for 2–3 days — chew on the other side and take the painkiller your dentist advises. Until the cap is fitted, avoid hard or sticky food on that side. Long term, the tooth works like any other with good brushing, flossing and regular check-ups. Call us if pain is severe, swelling worsens, the temporary filling comes out, or pain lasts beyond a few days.

Frequently asked questions
What is the root canal cost in Saket?+
At 32 Diamonds Clinic, an RCT costs ₹3,000–₹5,000 per tooth, depending on the tooth and how many canals it has.
Is a cap always needed after a root canal?+
Back teeth (premolars and molars) usually need one because they take heavy chewing forces. Front teeth sometimes do not. We'll tell you after the examination.
How long does a root-canal-treated tooth last?+
With a proper cap and good brushing, a treated tooth can last for many years, often a lifetime.
Is extraction cheaper than a root canal?+
Extraction costs less on the day. But replacing the missing tooth with an implant or bridge later costs much more than saving it with RCT.
