Tooth extraction
Anyone know the cost of a tooth extraction?

I've had two back teeth pulled at Southern Trace Dental in the Southern Trace Shopping Center on 466, it's near Publix the opposite way from Ace Hardware. I had one pulled four years ago and that was $725 and one pulled last year and that was $770. There is various reasons to not let leave a hole in the gum after the extraction, so they insert a piece of bone, I believe it's from a cow, and then stitch it up and then they remove the stitches later.

there are many variables, local anesthesia or general anesthesia, length of roots, location of the tooth, infection, etc. I have used Ronald E. Caylor 2 or 3 times with great results. In each case I chose to have a bone graft for future post installation. 352-391-5550, location very close to laurel Manor rec center. highly recommended.

Expanding on the question, what about people who choose to have dentures? If they get a whole upper or lower arch pulled - 14 to 16 teeth if wisdom teeth are still there. Are they paying $700 per tooth?
