Tooth extraction is a process of removing an infected, broken or impacted tooth from the oral cavity through a simple or surgical process.
A simple extraction of a broken or decayed tooth can be performed by a general dentist. However, surgical extraction of impacted canines, wisdom teeth, and severely broken teeth is done by specialized oral surgeons and oral maxillofacial surgeons.
A tooth can be extracted for several reasons, which include:
Tooth extraction and surgical tooth extraction (Impactions, Wisdom Tooth Extraction) are easily performed at Dental Art by Dr. Omer Farooq Ahmad where complicated impactions are performed under general anesthesia by Oral And Maxillofacial Surgeons at Surgimed Hospital And Ammar Hospital Along With Dr. Omer Farooq Ahmad.

The tooth extraction price ranges from 100 to 12000 rupees in Lahore, Pakistan. The price of tooth extraction depends on the following factors:
If you're visiting a dental teaching hospital or government hospital for tooth extraction, it will bring to your notice that the tooth extraction is performed by inexperienced junior dentists, house officers or post-graduate students, and you have to wait for appointments for long hours, days and travel long distances to reach the hospital or teaching college. These hospitals are funded by the government or student’ fees, so the charges are much less. However, all procedures are performed by experienced consultants and specialist doctors in a private clinic. Therefore, the tooth removal charges are slightly higher as compared to government hospitals. Furthermore, you don't have to wait in long queues and you are treated with compassion and care in a relaxed environment. Dentists in a private clinic listen to your queries carefully and suggest treatment that is best for you.
The cost of tooth pulling depends on the expertise of the dentist. A general dentist can perform simple extraction and his skills and knowledge are limited, but a specialized surgeon or dental consultant can perform complex procedures like tooth impactions and surgical extractions due to his competency and command in oral surgery. Therefore, the charges of teeth extraction of a consultant are higher than general dentist.
The cost of teeth pulling is affected by the condition of the tooth. It is difficult to remove broken or decayed teeth because it is tough to hold them due to compromised structure, but mobile or sound teeth are easily extracted. Therefore the cost varies for simple and surgical extraction.
The charges of an experienced dentist are comparatively higher than an inexperienced dentist because an experienced dentist is proficient in performing all types of surgeries with competency and skills. You will be satisfied with the treatment of quality of an experienced dentist.
The cost of tooth extraction is calculated by the number of teeth. The charges will be higher for multiple teeth removal as compared to a single tooth.
The clinic which is located on a busy street in a posh area will charge more compared to a clinic which is located in a local area. However, clinics with lower costs do not provide quality dental treatment with proper sterilization. Cases of Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C have been reported to reuse the instruments on multiple patients without Sterilization them in Autoclave units.
Tooth extraction is a simple procedure that is performed in local or general anesthesia. If your dentist tells you that your tooth is to be extracted, you don’t have to panic. He might tell you that you need simple extraction or surgical extraction, so I am giving you a review of both of these situations. Most of the time, the dentist does not recommend tooth extraction. That means the tooth can be safe by root canal treatment, but if an extraction is advised, there is no need to get afraid as now with topical anesthesia you won't even feel the needle!
There are two types of tooth extraction.
Simple tooth removal is performed under local anesthesia; the teeth can be pulled out with the forceps which does not involve any bone and gum cutting or incisions. This procedure is performed by General dentists and includes either single-rooted or mobile teeth.
Simple extraction is performed under local anesthesia which numbs the specific site of tooth removal due to which you will feel a slight pressure but no pain.
The dentist uses a specific instrument called an elevator to loosen the tooth from its socket, which is then pulled out of the mouth with the help of a forceps. Then, a pressure gauze pack is placed on the extracted site and the dentist will prescribe you medicine accordingly along with the postoperative instructions.
Your dentist may determine that the addition of certain surgical steps to your tooth's extraction process will help to make its removal go more smoothly, quickly and predictably. Surgical tooth extraction can be carried out in local as well as general anesthesia because it involves the gum incision, cutting of surrounding bone, sectioning of the tooth, bone graft, and suturing. These extractions are performed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons or oral surgeons.
Surgical tooth extractions are performed under local anesthesia and sometimes, surgical tooth extractions are also done under general anesthesia during which you will not be aware of your surroundings.
After anesthesia, the surgeon cuts the extraction site before pulling out the tooth, and they might have to remove the surrounding bone. In some cases, the tooth is split into sections to make its removal easy and pain-free, after which the dentist places stitches to close the wound and a pressure gauze pack to ensure proper healing. Then, medicines and postoperative instructions are given to the patient according to the complexity of the case.
In some clinics, tooth extraction is performed with local anesthesia along with intravenous anesthesia is administered to keep you calm and relaxed during the procedure.
Wisdom is a third molar which erupts at the age of 17-25 years, during which a person becomes wise to take decisions of life. Therefore, it is also known as a wisdom tooth.
There is no specific time for wisdom tooth eruption. Most of the time it is delayed until the early 20s, so there is no need to worry if you haven't got your wisdom teeth yet.
Most of the time, it is not necessary to remove wisdom teeth because they do not cause any problems, and minor inconveniences or slight pain can be resolved by taking painkillers and warm saline rinses. Mostly, tilted wisdom teeth remain silent in the bone throughout life and don’t need to be removed surgically, if any part of them erupts in the oral cavity, damaging the adjacent molars and causing cheek biting, then most probably wisdom tooth removal is advised.
However, it is mandatory to remove their third molars under the following conditions.
The cost of wisdom teeth removal ranges from Rs. 3000/- to Rs. 30,000/- in Lahore, Pakistan. The variation in wisdom tooth removal charges depends on the following factors:
The cost of wisdom tooth removal is higher in a private clinic because it is performed by highly skilled and experienced dentists who have treated thousands of patients and their expertise is remarkable. On the other hand, dental students and house officers treat patients in government hospitals who are in the learning phase and do not have any experience. Therefore, the wisdom tooth removal cost in Lahore is much less in a teaching hospital. It is recommended to get treatment from a well-qualified and specialized dentist because of the high quality of treatment and minimized postoperative complications.
Wisdom teeth are present in several positions and charges will be different. Horizontally, lying wisdom teeth need more time and expertise and their removal charges are more than other wisdom teeth. The cost of impacted teeth is higher because they are performed through surgical extraction, which involves the removal of bone and teeth are extracted in sections. But fully erupted wisdom teeth are easier to remove and do not require any surgical procedure. Therefore, the charges are nominal as compared to impacted wisdom teeth.
An experienced dentist charges more than a freshly graduated dentist because an experienced dentist is an expert at performing all types of surgery with proficiency and skill. You will be satisfied with pain-free and the best treatment services provided by an experienced surgeon. It’s always better to check online about experience and review and discuss wisdom tooth extraction procedures, the dentist who will perform the surgery and charges in details.
The cost of wisdom tooth extraction depends on the location of the dental clinic. The clinic which is located on a busy street in a posh area will charge more compared to the clinic which is located in a village or local area.
If wisdom teeth are fully erupted in an upright position, then they can be removed by simple extraction under local anesthesia. However, wisdom teeth can be impacted in horizontal, vertical, or angular positions, which are removed by surgical extraction because they do not have enough space to erupt in the oral cavity, so they remain embedded inside the bone.
If impacted wisdom teeth cause any discomfort, then they must be pulled out as soon as possible. Surgical extraction is performed under local or general anesthesia depending on patient cooperation and the complexity of the case.
Myth: It is a common belief that if you do not have wisdom teeth then you will not be able to make decisions.
Fact: Research and evidence have shown that around 35-45% of the population does not have wisdom teeth, and yet they can make all decisions wisely in every aspect of life.
Myth: Pulling wisdom teeth out of your mouth can make you less wise
Fact: Many people undergo the procedure of wisdom extraction, but there is no change in the intellect after the extraction, so it is not true information.
Myth: Extraction of all wisdom teeth is necessary
Fact: If wisdom teeth are not causing any trouble or pain, and they are functionally stable, then it is not required to remove them.
Wisdom teeth can be painful for several reasons, which are:
If you're experiencing any of the above symptoms, then you should visit our dentist at the earliest hour.
You should visit a general dentist. After a thorough examination and evaluation, the dentist will refer you to an oral maxillofacial surgeon or an oral surgeon if needed according to the complexity of the case; otherwise he will do the extraction himself.
The following are the signs of wisdom tooth eruption:
You do not need to worry if your wisdom teeth have not erupted because they are present inside the bone without showing any symptoms, and it will not make any difference.
If your wisdom teeth are functioning properly and helping you with chewing then it is not necessary to remove wisdom teeth because they can support oral structures if they are present in a correct upright position.
No, a tooth pulling is performed under anesthesia due to which you are unable to experience any pain. In some cases, sedation and general anesthesia is administered to increase the quality of treatment by making it completely pain-free.
After the procedure, the dentist recommends painkillers and antibiotics according to case severity to reduce pain and complications.
Yes, restoration of an extracted tooth is extremely vital, and it can be replaced by a dental implant, bridge, or a partial denture. However, restoration of impacted canines and wisdom teeth is not required.
