Despite this progress in preventive, restorative and operative techniques, teeth extraction remains an important part of therapeutic. A dental extraction is the removal of tooth from the oral cavity/ mouth. Dental extraction is one of the most common and affordable procedures for patients to achieve instant results and relief from pain. Extractions are performed for a wide variety of reasons like dental caries, periodontitis, dental trauma etc. This is a retrospective clinical study carried out at Saveetha Dental College.

A total of 14692 samples/ data were retrieved and the most frequently extracted teeth (quadrant wise) were examined. In this study we observe that the most commonly extracted teeth are from quadrant 1 (25.84%) in both male and female the most frequently extracted teeth are from quadrant 1, 14.06% and 11.78% respectively. P value > 0.05 insignificant correlation (Chi- square test).Bearing in the mind the limits of the study, the most commonly extracted teeth are from quadrant 1 (25.84%) followed by quadrant 2 (25.43%).
