What these numbers do and do not includeEach fee is for one procedure on one tooth, not the whole visit. An exam comes first, and whatever the tooth needs after that, a filling, an extraction, a crown, is its own line. The fee can also move with what the dentist finds once they are looking at the tooth: a cavity that looked small on the x-ray can need a bigger filling, and an extraction that looked simple can turn surgical. Treat this as a starting point. The exact number for your visit is confirmed before any treatment starts.
