You should have a checkup of your pet's dental health by a qualified veterinarian every 12 months. The cost of having a tooth removed varies widely across the UK. This variation can be influenced by factors such as regional living costs, the specific needs of the procedure and whether additional treatments like dental X-rays or anaesthesia are required. Single tooth extractions can cost £300-£400 or higher. Below is a table of average costs for dog tooth extractions by region, providing a snapshot of what dog owners might expect. Region and X-rays or additional work required can also affect the cost. Having your dog’s annual dental checkup noted on their records can help with any future claim on your pet insurance. The cost of dog tooth removal in the UK can be alleviated with a pet insurance plan.

We charge a fixed price for dentistry meaning regardless of how many x-rays we take, or teeth we extract you pay the same – so you won’t find your pet is under anaesthetic and being asked to pay an unexpected bill. A typical dental procedure will be a 90-minute surgical procedure involving oral examination under general anaesthesia, dental x-rays, extraction of teeth as needed and descaling and polishing the healthy teeth. It's often difficult to know how much dental work is needed until the pet's mouth is examined under anaesthetic.
