Tooth Extraction
A tooth extraction is a procedure that removes a tooth from its socket when it cannot be saved. At Dental Comfort Zone in Patna, a simple extraction costs ₹2,000 per tooth, a surgical extraction ₹4,000 to ₹5,000, and wisdom tooth removal ₹5,000 to ₹7,000. The area is numbed with local anaesthesia, a simple extraction usually takes 20 to 30 minutes, and we always try to save your natural tooth first. A tooth that is badly decayed, broken, infected or loose from gum disease can cause pain and put nearby teeth at risk. Removing it at the right time stops infection and protects your other teeth. This page explains when extraction is needed, the types, costs, steps, recovery and your options for replacing the tooth.

What Is Tooth Extraction?
Tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. It is used when a tooth is too damaged, infected or crowded to keep. Our first priority is always to preserve your natural teeth, so we examine the tooth and take digital X-rays before recommending extraction, and we explain any alternatives such as a root canal.
When Do You Need a Tooth Extraction?

Why extraction may be advised |
|

The tooth cannot be saved safely |
|
Loose tooth from advanced gum disease |

|

Wisdom Tooth Removal in Patna
Wisdom teeth are the last molars, usually appearing between the late teens and mid-twenties. Not every wisdom tooth needs removal. Removal is advised when the tooth is impacted, partly erupted, repeatedly infected, decayed, painful, or pressing on the tooth in front of it. A digital X-ray shows its position and roots, and your dentist advises whether to remove it. Wisdom tooth removal costs ₹5,000 to ₹7,000 per tooth.

Is Tooth Extraction Painful?
The area is numbed with local anaesthesia, so you should feel pressure but not sharp pain during the procedure. Once the numbness wears off, mild to moderate soreness is normal for a few days and is managed with the medicines your dentist prescribes.

Risks and When to Call Us
Complications are uncommon. They include prolonged bleeding, infection and dry socket, which happens when the blood clot is lost from the socket, usually 2 to 4 days after extraction.
Call us if you have severe pain that increases after the third day, a bad taste or smell, bleeding that does not stop, fever, or swelling that is spreading. If swelling reaches the eye or throat, or you struggle to breathe or swallow, go to a hospital emergency room.
Tell your dentist before treatment about diabetes, high blood pressure, heart conditions, blood thinners or pregnancy. For children’s baby teeth, see pediatric dentistry. For loose teeth from gum disease, see gum treatment.
