We study the roots of a random polynomial over the field of $p$-adic numbers. For a random monic polynomial with i.i.d. coefficients in $mathbb{Z}_p$, we obtain an estimate for the expected number of roots of this polynomial. In particular, if the coefficients take the values $pm1$ with equal probability, the expected number of $p$-adic roots converges to $left(p-1
ight)/left(p+1
ight)$ as the degree of the polynomial tends to $infty$.
