Widsom Tooth Extraction Cost

#1 Post by melRock »

I need to get my wisdom tooth extracted because there's a big cavity on it. I live in New York City and I don't have a dental insurance. Does anyone know approximately how much an extraction costs? Thanks.

Mel,

I just saw your thread now but I believe mine was $350 per tooth although in NYC it's probaly much higher. Good luck.

I don't have mine out yet but my dentist charges 250$ for one wisdom tooth and the price goes up according to complications and such.

i had my last wisdom tooth extracted today, and i had an oral surgeon do it (because of the postion of it, and it was impacted), and in costed me over $600. because they had to sedate me. but it would of been $275 if my dentist pulled it and it just being numbed up.. if it wasn't impacted my dentist charges $95.

I had an impacted wisdom tooth taken out by my dentist, just numbed up for $175. Regular extractions are $116.

Wow, expensive but well worth it ;) I personally got all four of my impacted wisdom teeth out for free because I did it at this place that was testing their...something. I was sort of freaked out at the idea of being a guinea pig but everything was fabulous and not the big ordeal I thought it would be.
