I have an abscess and need root canal is £630 expensive

Q. I went to visit a dentist today complaining of a throbbing tooth ache, my dentist said that he thinks its an abscess he then said that I needed root canal on my molar and did not quote me a price, he is now charging me £630 - isn’t that really expensive?

 
A. Prices vary according to the experience and location of the dentist. This fee is within the normal range for a private molar root treatment.
