Cost of Tooth Extractions. Generally, the harder the tooth is to remove, the more the procedure costs. Tooth extraction costs range from approximately $130 to $400. A simple tooth extraction of a permanent tooth can range from $100 to $250. Surgical extractions of permanent teeth cost $180 to $400; a simple tooth extraction of a baby tooth ranges from $90 to $150. Many dental insurance plans cover up to 80 percent of tooth extraction costs if the procedure is medically necessary and not for cosmetic reasons.
