Endodontics

Patients will need a referral from their general dentist explaining what tooth/teeth require root canal treatment/evaluation. The referral form to Advanced Endodontics must be completed and faxed or emailed by your general dentist’s office. Our fax number is 614-688-3608. Our email is rootcanal@osu.edu. Once our office has received your referral, we will add you to our list to be scheduled. Our office will call you when we are ready to schedule your dental appointment. Your scheduling will be dictated by appointment availability. Due to large patient population we serve, there may be a significant wait for your scheduled appointment. 

Please bring a copy of your completed referral, a government issued photo ID, and your insurance card if applicable. If you are a new patient to the Advanced Endodontic Clinic please arrive 30 minutes earlier than your scheduled appointment.

Delta Dental and state sponsored programs - Medicaid, CareSource, Molina and United Health Care Community Plan. Treatment for patients with state sponsored programs may require prior authorization from the insurance provider. Co-payments and treatment not covered by these insurance plans must be paid  up front. Patients with other insurance carriers who have out of network benefits will pay in full and we will submit a claim to your carrier asking them to reimburse you.

A root canal treatment can range anywhere from $740-$1129* depending on which tooth needs treatment and the type of treatment needed. (fees may change without notice).

We advise patients with referrals who are experiencing pain to come in during our Emergency Walk In hours. Patients without a referral who are experiencing pain may come in through the College’s Emergency Clinic. For more information about the Emergency Clinic please call 614-688-3763, option 1 or visit the Dental Emergency Care Clinic page.

Your treatment will be completed by one of our first, second or third year Endodontic Residents.
