You might want to check what's the cost in the specific Chinese city. If
you decide to postpone treatment, ask US dentist whether any temporary fix
is recommended (pulpotomy, filling etc.) for comfort and tooth preservation.

idea to remove the tooth and replace it with an implant, for the long term
prognosis of the root canal/crown may not be good.
I have retreated quite a few root canals done in China. Only several major
university dental schools can perform quality root canal on molars. You
might think twice before you go back to China for root canal.
$1300 out of pocket is reasonable for a root canal and crown. |
