    About your X-rays: X-rays you upload are stored in our records system and shared only with the matched provider as part of your consult — never posted publicly or sold. Carealign is not a HIPAA-covered platform. We do not automatically remove identifying information from images; if your X-ray shows visible names, dates of birth, or referring-dentist info you'd prefer not to include, you can crop or redact it before uploading, or skip this step and bring imaging to your appointment.

    Allow about 2 hours for the procedure.

    Our AI will convert your description into up to 20 date and time windows for you to confirm. Times use the time zone inferred from your ZIP code (entered below).

    This is the all-in amount you're willing to pay — no surprises. Qualified providers see this privately when deciding whether they can fit your request into open schedule capacity.

    💡 The average cash-pay root canal in the US costs $900–$1,500 depending on the tooth and complexity. A realistic budget plus flexibility on timing/travel improves match speed and pricing.

    Payment Method

    Select how you'd like to pay and complete payment verification for your request.

    Payment verification: To submit your request, you'll enter a card so we can verify funds are available for the amount you've offered. We do not fully charge your card when you submit. Instead, we may place a temporary authorization to confirm your payment method is valid and ready if a provider accepts your request. If more time is needed to find a match, we may ask you to reconfirm your payment details or refresh the authorization.

    You are only charged once your request is accepted and your appointment is being finalized.
