Both are qualified : To do them. An endodontist is a specialist who has completed two additional years of schooling for root canals. Root canals can often be very difficult to treat. Undoubtedly the fee charged by an endodontist is higher than that of a gp. If your dentist is comfortable with molar endo and you are comfortable with your dentists capabilities, then i'm sure he will do a good job for you. Hope this.
