Straightforward tooth removal

Simple tooth extraction from £120

Typically recommended for badly decayed, damaged or loose teeth that cannot be restored, a simple tooth extraction is carried out chairside under local anaesthetic without surgical treatment. Often completed in one appointment.

More challenging tooth removal

Complex tooth extraction from £230

Typically required when a tooth is badly broken, difficult to access or cannot be removed using straightforward extraction techniques. The procedure also takes place chairside, typically under local anaesthetic; it’s just a more involved procedure that might require stitches.

How Castle Dental can help

What problems can tooth extraction help with?

Our approach is always to prevent tooth extraction wherever possible and save your natural dentition. During an exam, we’ll assess whether your tooth can reasonably be saved before recommending extraction.

Typically, having a tooth pulled is appropriate if you’re suffering from problems such as:

  • Severe tooth decay
  • A badly broken or fractured tooth
  • Persistent infection around a tooth
  • A tooth that cannot be restored
  • Loose teeth affected by advanced gum problems
  • Painful or problematic wisdom teeth
  • A failed or repeatedly infected tooth
  • Broken teeth or roots remaining below the gum

Before recommending an extraction, we will examine the affected tooth and discuss if it can be saved. Depending on the problem and extent of the decay, alternative treatments could include a filling, crown or root canal treatment. 

How long does a tooth extraction take?

The tooth extraction process

The time needed to remove a tooth depends on its position and condition. A tooth extraction typically takes around one hour and can be completed in one visit.

Complex extractions can take longer if the tooth needs to be divided into sections or the gum needs to be opened. 

  1. The area around the tooth is numbed with anaesthetic. You won’t feel any pain during the procedure, but you may notice pressure or movement. 
  2. The tooth is carefully loosened before being removed from the socket. In more complex extractions, the tooth may need to be accessed through the gum or divided into smaller sections. Stitches might be used.
  3. Once the tooth has been removed, a blood clot forms in the socket, playing an important part in the healing process. We’ll provide aftercare instructions to help protect the area and reduce the risk of bleeding or dry socket.

Tooth extraction FAQs

How much does a tooth extraction cost in Lincoln?

At Castle Dental, a simple tooth extraction starts from £120, and a complex extraction starts from £230. Your dentist will assess the tooth first and provide a clear estimate before treatment.

Does having a tooth removed hurt?

The area around your tooth will normally be numbed with local anaesthetic before the extraction. You may feel pressure or movement during treatment, but the anaesthetic prevents pain while the tooth is removed.

What is the difference between a simple and complex extraction?

A simple extraction is generally suitable when the tooth is visible and easy to access. A complex extraction is more involved and may be needed if a tooth is broken, difficult to reach or needs to be divided into sections before removal.

Can my tooth be saved instead of extracted?

Sometimes. Your dentist will assess the condition of the tooth and discuss appropriate alternatives where possible, which could include a filling, crown or root canal treatment. Extraction is generally recommended when saving the tooth is no longer a predictable option.

How long does it take to recover after a tooth extraction?

Some soreness, swelling or mild bleeding is normal after an extraction, particularly during the first few days. Recovery varies depending on the tooth and complexity of treatment, and we will give you personalised aftercare advice before you leave.

What is dry socket?

Dry socket is a painful complication that can occur if the blood clot protecting the extraction socket does not form properly or becomes dislodged before the area has healed. Following your dentist’s aftercare instructions and avoiding smoking can help reduce the risk.
