Wisdom Teeth Removal Cost

The growth of wisdom teeth may result in several types of dental problems. You might be asking yourself exactly how much does it cost to extract wisdom teeth? The answer can vary on several factors. The following factors determine the cost of a wisdom tooth removal or extraction:

  • Simplicity or complexity of the procedure
  • Duration required to complete the procedure
  • Arrangement or alignment of teeth in the jaw
  • Type of anesthesia used to prep the patient for the extraction procedure
  • Number of wisdom tooth to be extracted

If I decide to have my wisdom teeth extracted, how long should the recovery take?

The stress about the intensity of pain as well as the timeframe for recovery may make you think twice about wisdom tooth extraction.

When we look at the factors involved in a patients wisdom tooth removal and the anxiety level of the patient, a dentist or an oral surgeon may carry out the procedure. Local anesthetic or a general anesthetic may be administered prior to your procedure. A local an anesthetic is used to numb the area and the mouth while a general anesthetic may put you to sleep throughout the procedure. The type of anesthetic used or the combination of both will affect the cost of your wisdom tooth extraction procedure.

Cost ranges for Wisdom tooth extraction can vary. A simple extraction using local anesthetic may cost a few hundred dollars whereas extracting all four can cost significantly more. With patients experiencing a more complex extraction such as impacted teeth, the price may be considerably higher. The use of general anesthesia for your wisdom tooth extraction procedure will add even more to the overall cost.
Patients with dental insurance may receive a break since the insurance may pay for the treatment or a portion of it. Coverage will depend on the insurance and policy, we always recommend that you check prior to the procedure.
