Tooth Extraction in Thane
Careful, comfortable removal of teeth that cannot be saved.
A tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth that is too damaged, decayed, loose or impacted to save. At The Golden Tooth in Thane it is done under local anaesthesia, with careful technique and clear aftercare instructions so healing is smooth. We also discuss how to replace the tooth if needed.
About tooth extraction
We always try to save a natural tooth first. When that is not possible, for example with severe decay, a fracture below the gumline, advanced gum disease or an infection that cannot be treated otherwise, removing the tooth protects the rest of your mouth. Our consulting oral surgeon handles more complex extractions.

Frequently asked questions
Does a tooth extraction hurt?
The area is numbed with local anaesthesia, so you should feel pressure but not pain. Some soreness afterwards is normal.
How long does an extraction take to heal?
The gum usually settles within a week or two, while the bone beneath takes longer to remodel.
What is dry socket?
It is a painful condition where the blood clot is lost from the socket, usually a few days after extraction. Contact your dentist if pain increases instead of easing.
Should I replace an extracted tooth?
Usually yes, because gaps can cause neighbouring teeth to shift and affect chewing. Options include implants, bridges and dentures.
How much does a tooth extraction cost in Thane?
The cost depends on your case, so we give a clear quote after examination, with no hidden charges added later.
