Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

Nobody schedules a root canal for fun, and finding an endodontist in New York usually starts the moment a tooth won't stop aching. The practices below have logged 4,166 Google reviews between them, and every single one sits at 4.8 or higher, with three holding 4.9 or a full 5.0. That kind of consistency at this review volume is unusual, so the differences worth knowing are in scheduling and how each handles pain on the day you call.

Short answer: New York City Endodontics on East 60th Street holds a perfect 5.0 across 1,051 reviews. JC Endodontics carries the largest review base on this page at 1,129 reviews, rated 4.9. FiDi Endodontics in the Financial District matches that 4.9 across 831 reviews. Same-day emergency appointments come up across nearly every practice here, so pain relief timing is rarely the deciding factor.

Watch: 5 Best Endodontists in New York (2026)

Health information disclaimer: This directory is informational only and not medical advice. Rankings reflect publicly available Google ratings and review volume, not clinical outcomes. Verify any practitioner’s credentials and registration with the relevant medical board before booking.

How we score

Rating is the live Google average at time of writing. Review volume shows how many patients have actually left a review, ranked against the others on this page. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a perfect score built on a handful of reviews would score lower than one built on over a thousand. Recency checks how recently people are still reviewing. No business can pay to change any of these numbers.

How much does a root canal cost in New York? (2026)

None of these practices publish a fixed price list for root canal treatment on their own sites. Cost depends heavily on the tooth involved, whether it’s an initial treatment or a retreatment, and insurance coverage, so a specific figure would not hold up across cases.

Serving all of New York

These cluster around Midtown, the Upper East and Upper West Sides, and the Financial District, covering most of Manhattan within a short subway ride. If you’re searching for an endodontist near me in New York, Midtown’s cluster is the easiest starting point from most boroughs.

What to ask before a root canal consultation

  • Is this a first-time treatment or a retreatment of a prior root canal?
  • What’s the full cost breakdown including any follow-up crown work?
  • Does the practice offer same-day appointments for patients in pain?
  • Will the endodontist or a staff member follow up with me after treatment?
  • What insurance plans does the practice accept?
  • What happens if the tooth still hurts after the procedure?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge and top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these picks?

We pulled real Google Business Profile data for endodontists across New York and ranked them on rating, review volume, and how recently people are still reviewing them.

How often is this updated?

This page was last verified in July 2026 using live Google data, and we recheck it periodically as ratings and review counts shift.

What’s the difference between a dentist and an endodontist?

An endodontist specializes in root canal treatment and other procedures involving the inside of the tooth, usually after a referral from a general dentist.

Can I walk in for emergency tooth pain?

Several practices on this list mention same-day emergency slots for patients in acute pain, though calling ahead is the more reliable route.

The bottom line

New York City Endodontics is the standout on rating alone, a perfect 5.0 across a thousand-plus reviews. If weekday scheduling is tight, Compassionate Endodontists’ seven-day hours are worth a second look. Confirm insurance coverage before the first visit either way.
