Does a removed gold tooth have any monetary value?

Yes - about £10 - £15 at the moment. On average, scrap gold prices. (They're very high at the moment.)
But it's also 'clinical waste' so there are rules about how you can dispose (sell) it.
Unless you find someone willing to bend those, it might cost you more to sell than you get for it.How to find a dentist.
1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.0 -

Yes, for example (not a recommendation!) 1 gram of dental gold here £13.32 at today's price.
