What is tooth Extraction?
Tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth that cannot be saved because of extensive decay, gum disease, fracture or orthodontic reasons. A simple extraction is done with special instruments under local anaesthesia; impacted teeth or broken roots may need a surgical extraction.
How is tooth Extraction done?
- Examination and X-ray
- Local anaesthesia
- Loosening and removing the tooth
- Placing gauze to stop bleeding, with stitches if needed
- Aftercare advice
Who is tooth Extraction suitable for?
- Teeth that cannot be saved with root canal treatment or fillings
- Teeth loosened by advanced gum disease
- Teeth removed for orthodontic treatment
Aftercare: what to watch out for
- Bite on the gauze for 30–60 minutes.
- Do not rinse, spit forcefully, smoke or drink through a straw for the first 24 hours.
- Eat soft, lukewarm food on the other side.
- See your dentist if pain increases after day 2–3 (dry socket).
Possible side effects and risks
- Bleeding and swelling
- Dry socket
- Infection
- Rarely numbness from nerve injury (mostly lower wisdom teeth)
Are there alternatives?
Whenever possible, saving the tooth with root canal treatment, crowns or gum treatment is preferred. After extraction, the gap can be restored with an implant, bridge or denture.
What affects the cost of tooth extraction?
The cost of tooth extraction depends on factors such as simple or surgical extraction; position and root shape of the tooth; need for imaging, and is set by the doctor after an examination. Under Turkish rules on the advertising of health services, prices are not published on our site; you can ask the doctor directly when you request an appointment.

Who is the best doctor for tooth extraction?
There is no single “best” doctor for everyone. The right doctor for you is experienced in tooth extraction, easy to reach, and explains the options clearly. Check whether the doctor lists this treatment on their profile, their specialty (dentist, oral surgeon), the overall picture of patient reviews and the clinic’s location, and ask for a clear written treatment plan, timeline and cost at the first consultation. For major treatments you have the right to a second opinion. “En İyi Hekim” (Turkish for “best doctor”) is our brand name: we do not rank doctors as “best” and rankings cannot be bought.

Does tooth extraction hurt?
It is done under local anaesthesia, so you feel pressure but not pain. Mild pain for a few days afterwards is common.
When can I eat after an extraction?
You can eat soft, lukewarm food once the numbness wears off, avoiding the extraction side.
