Mapping the roots first. An x-ray shows the root shape and its relationship to nerves and sinuses, so there are no surprises mid-procedure.
For a tooth that is fully visible. Loosened and lifted out in one piece under local freezing. Typically $150–$350 per tooth.
For broken or buried teeth. A small incision and sometimes sectioning of the tooth. Commonly $300–$600. See also oral surgery.
Planned before you leave. A dental implant, bridge or partial denture, depending on the site and your budget.

Most simple tooth extractions can be completed within 20–40 minutes, while more complex procedures, such as impacted wisdom tooth extractions, may take longer.
Your dentist will examine your teeth, take any necessary X-rays, discuss treatment options, administer anesthesia, and carefully remove the tooth. Afterward, you will receive detailed aftercare instructions.
