In Nigeria, the price of replacing a tooth can change based on where the dental clinic is located, the type of replacement picked, and the dentist's level of skill. As a general rule, replacing a tooth with a dental implant, bridge, or denture can cost between ₦50,000 and ₦300,000 or more per tooth. Because they need to be surgically placed and are made of expensive materials, dental implants are usually the most expensive choice. Most of the time, bridges and dentures are cheaper options, but they may need more care over time. Speaking to a qualified dentist is important to find out which replacement choice is best for your needs and to get an accurate price quote. It's also possible that dental insurance or discount plans can help cover some of the costs of tooth replacement treatments.

Good morning nairalanders, my elder brother has been complaining of tooth ache (molar tooth) since 10 years ago.
He has tried all medical and herbal ways to cure it but to no avail.
The ache will go today and will double while coming back.
There happens to be a small hole in the affected tooth.
The ache comes with a serious pain they will make him restless for days.

I am suggesting a tooth removal for him

I was researching about this today. And I'm mostly concerned about the filing of the tooth.

I have this 8yr old nephew of mine that has developed a hole in one of his molars.
I'm suggesting the tooth be removed now.

Docs/Dents in the house, what do you suggest?


let him remove it

The cost of a dental implant is dependent on the number of teeth to be replaced the, Types of Teeth (Molar Incisor's etc.), The environment where the dental clinic is located as well as if there are underlying oral conditions involved.
you can buy single implants and parts for one case at a time at N100,000, renting the kit and motor until you can afford it. A single implant placed and restored costs about N350,000 to N600,000 in Nigeria (Due to inflation). Location: Abuja MSDI dental implant.

Last year November,I removed one of my teeth and the dentist advised I go for dental implant at a cost #850,000 I ran away.

last month I went back to start the process with the intention of advancing them with 60% of the total cost but was told it's now N1.420,000.

TugOfWar:
he feels pin as fück
How does the filling work
I have been there, the pain is terrible.
The pain is due to stimulation on nerve ending inside the tooth that is now exposed inside that hole, the will just clean out the inside of the teeth and fill it with a composite material and then reshape the tooth to how it was but make it clear you don't want amalgma feeling as it is silver in color and might be noticeable unless you don't care about that

It depends on where you are. Government hospitals and Military Hospitals are cheaper than private dental clinics.

Never remove a tooth if you can do a root canal. The cost of replacing that tooth when you are older and wiser is astronomical.

U bite stone inside suya! Are u serious?

Pls shed more light on dat root canal. What does it really mean?
ikezudon:
If you go to a public hospital, it is cheaper. I took out a tooth for 7k in Randle hospital last year September 2023.

A replacement tooth in the same hospital costs 7k or so..

Before taking out the tooth, I tried to do a root canal treatment to save the tooth at the same hospital. Cost was 35k... I was supposed to crown the tooth after the RCT with 50k, but I was ill-advised by my friend. He said the RCT was good and could last a long time without the crowning. The crowning is more like a case that is worn to the tooth like clothes, phone case, screen guard etc, for protection since it is in a solid state but still fragile.... I Sha didn't do it...

However, I was forced to remove the same tooth a year later after biting stone in suya😭😭.

Am not sure it was tooth ache u had. U mean the tooth ache just choose to not exist again, after washing ur mouth to get rid of food particles whenever u eat?

Even if it choose to not exist again for now, it might still come later. Maybe it just pause for a while. And mind u, better go to the dentist and find the best solution to dat teeth because, the decay in that particular teeth might spread to another.
lekonso:

Tell him to wash his teeth immediately after each meal. No food to be allowed to stay in his mouth for one second. He will be okay. This is what i did when i had tooth ache, and it was gone since, i was surprised myself.

Love800:

When you are older and need to replace that tooth cheaply removed, you find out the cost is plenty.
Eg. When I was a teen, I pulled out a tooth that broke. I could have simply done a root canal with capping procedure. It was like 15k, but I removed the tooth for maybe 2k.
Few years later around 2004, I went to scubbs rental clinic, Apapa, guess what? I was billed $1250 for an implant replacement.
Dont forget as you grow older, missing teeth causes collapse face

You just described what happened to me, I filled the teeth and as I was eating suya yesternight, the thing scattered, the pain if I go to that area is indescribable, I’m going to remove it this morning as I can’t even chew food in that area.
