Published fees
How much is root canal treatment at Seoul Today Dental Clinic?
The published root canal fee is ₩400,000 per front tooth or premolar and ₩500,000 per molar. Your dentist confirms the treatment plan and full cost after examination, before treatment begins.
These are root canal fees, rather than a single price for every part of a tooth's care. If a crown is recommended, ask for its cost and the complete plan in writing. A crown recommendation depends on the tooth's condition.
Published crown and restoration feesPlanning your care
Already have X-rays or a treatment recommendation?
You can send recent dental records or X-rays before visiting. Tell the coordinator which tooth is involved, what a previous dentist recommended, and whether you are living in Korea or visiting for a limited time. Existing records help the team prepare for your appointment; the final diagnosis and fee are confirmed in person.
Tell us your available dates before booking treatment around a trip. The number of appointments and whether further restorative work is needed must be confirmed for your own tooth. We do not promise that every root canal can be completed in a single visit.
The goal is to save your tooth when appropriate. We explain what we find, the options and their costs in English, so you can agree to a plan you understand.

Before your appointment
Records, payment and insurance
What should I bring to my first visit?
Bring photo ID, a list of any medications you take, and any recent dental X-rays or records you have (or send them ahead by WhatsApp or email). If you have a specific concern, photos of the area help us prepare before you arrive.
How can I pay? Do you take international cards?
Yes. International credit and debit cards are accepted, and Korean bank transfer works too. Treatment is quoted and billed in Korean won, so if you pay by international card, your bank converts the amount at its own exchange rate.
Do you accept Korean National Health Insurance (NHIS)?
Our services for international patients are private-pay: we do not process National Health Insurance claims. We provide itemized English receipts and treatment documentation on request, which you can submit to your private or travel insurance, including U.S. TRICARE claims (coverage depends on your plan). If your insurer needs a specific claim form completed, bring it along and we'll help you fill in the treatment details.
