When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
  • Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
  • Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description, special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
  • Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
  • Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors. Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

HI,

The cost of extractions really depends on the condition of the remaining roots. It can range from $150-$300. You are welcome to bring your dad to our office for an evaluation. There will be no charge to examine the area, and we can let you know the exact cost.

Thanks

Usually to take out broken roots the fee would be $175 per tooth.

My first available appt would be on Tuesday.

If you are interested, email me back with a name and phone number, so we can arrange a definite appointment time.

Cost Estimate: $105-195 per tooth
Hi.

I''''''''m glad you understand the necessity of removing the retained roots, as they could cause your dad discomfort and infection down the line.

A precise fee quote is not possible until I see how the roots are situated in your dad''''''''s gums. These roots may be simple to extract, in which case the fee is $105 each. Or, the roots may require that they be "sectioned", or divided in two and taken out one at a time (for each tooth), in which case the fee would be $195 each. In rare cases, the roots may be situated under a layer of bone, and removal of the bone may be necessary.

Should you decide to bring your dad to our office in Jackson Heights, we would take a radiograph in order to see the exact position of the roots in the bone. Then, we could give you the precise fee and proceed, with your permission.

Please feel free to call our office at 718-429-7744 if you need any further information, or drop me an email at bestcarefd@gmail.com.

Best of Luck,

Deepti Gupta, D.D.S.
