Tooth extraction cost in Dubai — simple vs surgical extraction
An erupted, intact tooth is very different from an impacted wisdom tooth close to a nerve — so are the time and cost.
Tooth extraction cost in Dubai depends on whether the tooth can be removed simply or needs surgical removal, the imaging required, the position of wisdom teeth, sedation if requested and any grafting to preserve the socket for an implant. Many insurance plans cover medically necessary extractions.
Key facts
- Simple vs surgical
- Imaging when needed
- Socket preservation if an implant is planned
- Insurance often covers necessary extractions
Simple extraction
A visible tooth removed with instruments under local anaesthetic.
Surgical extraction
Broken, impacted or deeply rooted teeth that need the gum opened or the tooth sectioned.
Planning ahead
If the tooth will be replaced by an implant, socket preservation at extraction can make future treatment easier.
When a tooth can't be saved, careful extraction protects the surrounding bone for future replacement. We discuss implant or bridge options before the tooth is removed.

How much does a tooth extraction cost in Dubai?
At Manhal Medical Center in Dubai, extractions are carried out by Dr. Moataz Al-Khan, Specialist Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, and Dr. Manhal Helfawee, and the cost is given in a written plan after examination and X-rays. It depends mainly on whether the extraction is simple or surgical. Each item is listed so you know what is included before treatment.
Why does a surgical or wisdom tooth extraction cost more than a simple one?
Dr. Moataz Al-Khan at Manhal Medical Center in Dubai explains that surgical extractions — for impacted wisdom teeth, broken teeth or retained roots — may need gum incisions, bone removal, sectioning the tooth, stitches and 3D imaging to check nerve position. A simple extraction of a fully erupted tooth is quicker and less involved. Bone grafting to preserve the site for a future implant is a separate item when needed.
Is it better to extract a tooth or save it, considering long-term cost?
At Manhal Medical Center in Dubai, Dr. Manhal Helfawee and Dr. Moataz Al-Khan discuss whether a tooth can be saved with a root canal and crown, or whether extraction is the better choice. Removing a tooth may seem cheaper at first, but replacing it later with an implant or bridge adds cost, and leaving a gap can let teeth shift. They explain both paths so you can decide.

Like many people, I don't enjoy the dentist. For many years I avoided visits out of fear. I found Manhal 15 years ago, and he is a wonderful dentist. Calming presence. Excellent implantology as well as other dental work. I have recommended him personally to many friends, and will continue to do so. I just hope he doesn't ever retire. When I have been overseas with dental problems, I have flown back to Dubai specifically to see him. Could not imagine ever going to another dentist.this was my first visit to Dr Manhal after recomendation from my husband, i needed his consultation after i visited more than one doctor in Lebanon with no luck, i am glad i visited him, he is very professional the clinic is very clean with great staffAmazing service and very friendly team I'm very happy with my dental implant results with Dr.Manhal ❤️
