. You may need cleaning along with desensitizing procedures and / or artificial enamel filling and / or root canal treatment. Advance procedures can be done with laser too.

Just scaling of teeth cost 1000 usually.
And root canal of a single teeth can cost around 3000 per teeth.
The dentist can charge as much amount he want there is no mrp fixed.
If you go to the government hospital then it can cost 500 and in private clinics it can cost 5000 or even more.
You cannot contradict for that.
You should have enquired for the cost before taking the treatment.
