Oral and dental surgery is one of the most important branches of dentistry, encompassing a wide range of services from wisdom tooth extraction to specialized gum surgeries and implants. However, one of the primary concerns for patients before undergoing any type of surgery is awareness of the costs.
On this page of the Dr. Bonyanian dental website, we have tried to comprehensively review the factors affecting the price of oral and dental surgeries and provide you with precise and up-to-date information.
What Factors Affect the Final Price of Tooth Extraction or Surgery?
Some factors that influence the price of surgery and extraction services are determined by the individual’s condition.
For example, the type and number of the tooth you intend to have surgery on, whether the tooth is infected or not, how much of the tooth is accessible, the need or lack thereof for surgery, visiting a general dentist, a specialist, or a maxillofacial surgeon, and so on.
However, some other factors depend on the dentist’s and clinic’s location. For instance, the fee of the dentist or surgeon for resolving the dental issue, or the address of the clinic.
Below, we will introduce and explain each of these influential factors on the cost of surgery and tooth extraction at Dr. Bonyanian’s dental clinic.
Location of the Tooth
The location of the tooth is a significant factor affecting the price of extraction and surgery. A major part of this is determined by the position and placement of that tooth in the mouth.
For example, wisdom tooth surgery is considered one of the most difficult procedures in dentistry. This is because this tooth is located at the furthest point of access, making its surgery or even extraction a very challenging task.
Sometimes, a general dentist will not be able to perform your wisdom tooth surgery. In such situations, you will have to see a specialist maxillofacial surgeon, which will incur a higher cost for you.
In any case, the cost of wisdom tooth surgery or extraction is more expensive than the price of surgery and extraction of molars and front teeth.
Presence or Absence of Infection
Sometimes a tooth may be severely infected. In these situations, there are two options for extracting the tooth. The first is for the patient to take antibiotics (for a week).
The second option is for the dentist to perform oral and dental surgery to drain the root infection. In the latter case, the cost of the procedure will be added to the final cost of the tooth extraction, or the dentist will assist with the surgery.
Complexity of the Extraction Stages
Some teeth, unlike regular teeth that have only two roots, have three, four, or even five canals (roots). The more roots a tooth has, the more difficult the extraction process will be. For this reason, the complexity of the extraction stages is one of the factors affecting the price of tooth extraction.
Dental Insurance Coverage
If the insurance pays the full cost of the procedure, the costs of surgery and tooth extraction under these conditions will be reduced for you (or even become zero).
Following up and investigating this matter more closely is possible by contacting your insurance provider. You can ask about the cost of dental surgery coverage from your insurance.
The Dentist’s Skill
No one likes to endure a lot of severe pain during the tooth extraction process. Of course, a certain amount of pain is natural for the extraction process, as a tooth is being removed from its socket along with all its roots connected to the nerves! However, excruciating and unbearable pain that even makes it difficult to breathe is not logical.
The more skilled the dentist is in diagnosing the number of tooth roots and in their ability to dislodge the tooth, the less pain will be experienced from this dental procedure.
If you plan to use the services, visit a skilled and experienced dentist. Be sure that paying a higher fee to a professional dentist is worth not experiencing pain.
Other factors, such as ancillary costs (like the geographical location of the clinic), also affect the final price of the extraction process, in addition to all the factors we mentioned, such as a dental visit and radiography (X-rays).
This rule also applies to dental surgery. The skill of the surgeon often leads to a good and comfortable procedure, while, in contrast, a lack of sufficient skill from the dentist can lead to you enduring severe pain.
Therefore, it is better to consult a professional dentist for any dental service, from tooth extraction to surgery and restoration.
The Cost of Tooth Extraction
In some cases, extracting a tooth is a better solution than saving it. This is because leaving an infected, decayed, or damaged tooth in the mouth can lead to more serious risks, such as damage to the gums and adjacent teeth.
At Dr. Bonyanian’s dental clinic, we have divided the prices for tooth extraction into three categories based on their location: posterior, canine, and anterior.
The table below shows you the latest prices for tooth extraction in Tehran for the year 1404 (2025-2026).
Cost of Dental Surgery
Each of the possible (and necessary) surgeries on the tooth, gum, jaw, or surrounding structures of the mouth and face falls into the category of tooth surgery. These surgeries most often include wisdom tooth extraction and even corrective jaw surgery, and periodontal (gum) procedures like bone grafting.
The table below shows you a collection of costs categorized under dental surgery.
Cost of Wisdom Tooth Surgery in Tehran
Wisdom tooth surgery is sometimes necessary to treat impaction, relieve the pressure the wisdom tooth exerts on adjacent teeth, or even for extraction.
This surgery, which is performed based on the type of tooth (impacted or semi-impacted), leads to resolving wisdom tooth problems and placing it in its proper path, or even its extraction (removing the wisdom tooth from the mouth).
The cost of wisdom tooth surgery will be between 2 to 6 million Toman, depending on all the factors we mentioned above. If you wish, you can read the details in the rest of the article about wisdom tooth extraction. If your goal is only to extract it, and not to pay for its return to its original path, you will have to undergo wisdom tooth surgery, but the cost will be approximately 4 to 5 million Toman.
Price of Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Wisdom tooth extraction is one of the most common actions people take when they are bothered by this tooth. Since the wisdom tooth is located at the back of the jaw and is the last tooth in the row, it causes a lot of pain for the individual when it grows and emerges from the gum.
Sometimes, this tooth cannot find a chance to grow due to a lack of sufficient space and a small jaw. Over time, this not only causes pain for the person but also misaligns other teeth by applying pressure on them (and causes other teeth to become crooked).
An impacted wisdom tooth, which is a tooth that remains semi-impacted or fully impacted in the jaw due to a lack of space, is another problem that leads to the decision to extract it. A hidden wisdom tooth is also known as an impacted tooth.
This tooth may remain impacted in the mouth for a long time or even forever, or it may cause the person severe pain after it starts to emerge.
Wisdom tooth extraction is one of the ways to get rid of these problems. However, for all the reasons mentioned, the price of extracting a wisdom tooth is higher than other teeth. The following table shows you the cost of wisdom tooth extraction in the upper and lower jaws.
Cost of Pediatric Dental Surgery
The story of pediatric dental surgery is a bit different from adult dental surgery because children, in most cases and especially at younger ages, do not understand the concept of cooperating with the dentist and staying calm for a dental procedure. In such cases, the use of anesthesia may be necessary for this group of children.
Dr. Nazanin Bonyanian explained on this topic:
Pediatric dental surgery is a solution to preserve a baby tooth until the permanent tooth grows in. This is because the early loss of a baby tooth will lead to many problems.
Problems such as lack of sufficient space in the jaw for the growth of permanent teeth, loss of self-confidence in the child, inability to chew food properly, and ultimately, improper growth of the child due to not eating correctly. For this reason, preserving the baby tooth until it falls out on its scheduled date is the best way to prevent these problems.
The table below will provide you with more complete information about the fees for various types of pediatric dental surgeries.
Price of Extracting a Deciduous (Baby) Tooth
One of the problems that some children face is the need for tooth extraction. This problem arises in certain specific situations. For example:
- A baby tooth may not fall out at the scheduled time and delay the emergence of the permanent tooth.
- A baby tooth may be infected or decayed.
- A baby tooth may have grown in an improper position.
In such cases, a pediatric dentist is forced to extract the baby tooth.
You should expect to pay around 1 million Toman for the extraction of a baby tooth. The cost of extracting a baby tooth is less than the cost of extracting a permanent tooth.

Cost of Extracting a Broken Tooth
The cost of extracting a broken tooth largely depends on the type and severity of the fracture. It needs to be seen whether the dentist is able to extract what is left of the tooth or not.
In special circumstances, the dentist may have to perform surgery and remove the root from your tooth. Under these conditions, the price for removing the remaining root from inside your tooth will be between 3 to 4 million Toman.
Cost of Surgery and Extraction with Social Security Booklet
As we mentioned at the beginning of the article, using insurance is one of the ways to reduce the cost of extraction. Most insurance companies pay for all or part of the cost of extraction or surgery services.
At Dr. Bonyanian’s dental clinic, Social Security insurance also follows this rule. According to our editorial team’s review, you can claim the cost of your tooth extraction from the health insurance history viewing system. This also applies to the cost of a portion of dental surgery.
For more information on this matter, you can visit one of the Social Security branches near your place of residence or contact them via their phone numbers (or other insurance providers).
Price of Canine Tooth Extraction
Canine teeth are the sharper teeth used for cutting and tearing tough foods (like meat). Since canines play an important role in the function of the mouth and digestion, maintaining their health and hygiene is important.
However, in situations where this tooth is damaged, decayed, or broken for any reason, it must be extracted. The cost of canine tooth extraction is about 1.5 million Toman.
Price of Molar Tooth Extraction
Molars are located in the back rows of the jaw. These teeth usually have more roots, and access to them is more difficult than the front teeth.
The cost of molar tooth extraction is about 1.5 to 2.5 million Toman.

Price of Wisdom Tooth Extraction with Surgery
If the tooth root extraction is not easily possible, or in situations where wisdom tooth extraction is needed under circumstances where you can get help from the dental surgery method for this process. In these cases, the final cost will be calculated based on the surgery.
Price of Maxillofacial (Jaw and Face) Surgery
Some of the problems that arise in the oral and dental area are due to jaw and facial issues. The diagnosis of these problems can be made by a specialist maxillofacial surgeon or an orthodontist.
Types of surgeries in the jaw and face area include the following:
- Surgery to correct a recessed upper jaw
- Surgery to correct a protruded lower jaw
- Surgery to correct a deviated lower jaw
- Surgery to correct a recessed lower jaw
- Correction of a gummy smile
- Surgery to correct an open bite
- Chin surgery (Genioplasty)
- Cheek surgery
A crucial point in this regard is consulting a specialist maxillofacial surgeon. This means a specialist who, in addition to having studied general medicine, has also acquired skills in the fields of dentistry and jaw surgery.
The cost of jaw and face surgery in Tehran in the year 1404 (2025-2026) will be determined differently depending on the type of surgery we introduced to you above. This cost will typically be determined by a specialized maxillofacial surgery clinic.
