Deductible. Most dental insurance plans require you to meet a deductible before the insurance plan covers any of the cost. If your deductible is $1,000 and the dentist quotes you $1,000 for the root canal, the insurance plan technically won't cover any of the cost of the root canal.

Can a root canal be considered medical?
