    Factors Influencing the Cost of Wisdom Tooth Removal

    The cost of wisdom tooth removal varies depending on factors like the complexity of the case and the type of anesthesia chosen, which can significantly impact out-of-pocket expenses.

    Complexity of the Case

    The complexity of getting your wisdom teeth removed impacts the total cost. Simple tooth extraction, where the tooth is fully erupted and visible, are less expensive.

    However, impacted wisdom teeth require an intricate surgical extraction, increasing the expense. Another factor includes the number of wisdom teeth needing removal. An oral surgeon removing one tooth costs less than extracting all four wisdom teeth at once.

    Local Anesthesia vs General Anesthesia

    Choosing between local anesthesia and general anesthesia also affects the overall cost. Local anesthesia, which numbs just the extraction area, is less costly and often used for simple tooth extractions.

    General anesthesia, which puts you to sleep for the procedure, incurs higher costs and is typically reserved for complicated cases or how many teeth that require extraction. The choice depends on your comfort level and the complexity of the procedure.

    Common Questions

    When you have dental benefits, wisdom tooth removal becomes more affordable. Most dental benefits plans cover at least a portion of the extraction cost, especially for impacted wisdom teeth or wisdom teeth extractions deemed medically necessary. The amount covered usually depends on your specific policy and the extent of surgical procedures required.

    Extraction Type: Simple tooth extractions generally cost less. Your benefit might cover 70% to 80% of the costs.

    Impacted Teeth: Surgical extractions for impacted wisdom teeth are more expensive, but dental benefit often covers a significant portion. Your out-of-pocket expenses could still be $100 to $200 per tooth.

    Anesthesia Options: This adds to the final cost if you need general anesthesia. Dental benefits might cover some, but not all, of these additional fees.

    Always check with your benefits provider for coverage details and co-payments or deductibles.

    Without dental benefits, wisdom teeth extraction can become costly. You'll be responsible for the total cost, which varies depending on the complexity of the extraction process and anesthesia used.

    Simple Extractions: If the procedure is straightforward, a simple extraction can range from $75 to $200 per tooth.

    Surgical Extractions: The removal of impacted wisdom teeth involves surgery, which costs from $225 to $600 per tooth. This higher cost reflects the complexity of the procedure and the need for more specialized care.

    Anesthesia Fees: Using general anesthesia increases the total cost by $250 to $800, depending on the complexity and duration of the procedure.

    For families without dental benefits, many dental practices offer payment plans or financing options to help manage these expenses. Always ask your dental office for an accurate estimate to avoid surprises.

    Our dental office offers payment plans and 0% interest financing to help manage your wisdom tooth removal cost. A payment plan splits the total cost into manageable monthly payments. This way, you don't need to pay the entire amount upfront.

    I’ve been going Cloverdale Dental Centre for about 15 years now, which is a testament to how great everyone is there. The staff feels like family and is very friendly and caring, the dentists and hygienists provide high-level service. Recently, the clinic has made some changes which have further improved what was already a great dental clinic, such as adding new high tech, follow up phone calls to make sure you’re doing well after the treatment, and even offering coffee gift cards if the treatment went way longer than expected. I’d recommend Cloverdale Dental Care to anyone looking for a great dental clinic.

    I enjoy the friendly service here. They are very good at their job. It also looks very clean and hygienic. It's worth the distance to still go there, because I feel that they do top-notch service, and truly care about their patients/customers.

    My first visit with Cloverdale Dental Centre was really good. I was searching for a new dentist near me. I chose them based on all of the excellent reviews. They were all exactly as described. Look forward to continuing as one of their patients.
