Answer 1

Out of personal experience it cost me about $2000.

Cost of Having Wisdom Teeth Pulled

Here are answers and opinions from FAQ Farmers:

• I would say it is probably about 2000 dollars. Or more possibly. And just a side note, it won't be too much more to have the 4th one taken out at the same time, if you have it. And it will be much better for you in the long run.

• It could be a lot less than that if you had the right plan and I am not talking insurance. I am talking a discount card that cost less than insurance and save you more money than no insurance at all.

• My doctor charged 460 per tooth for extraction and 260 for IV sedation.

• Having four wisdom teeth pulled will cost 2133.00 at the place I am having it done. I will also have general anesthesia.

• I got my wisdom teeth pulled in Brazil while I was there as it was much cheaper. I paid $600 for pulling my four wisdom teeth.

• To have all four of mine, plus IV sedation, and gas, it was $1100CA. It would have been $50 cheaper if I had it done in a hospital, but being in a hospital would mean total sedation and I'd loose all my piercings. Price really depends on experience and qualifications.

• I just got all 4 of my wisdom teeth yesterday. I have absolutely no pain at all. I am taking penicillin and ibuprofen, but I have not experienced pain yet. To take out all four of my wisdom teeth, it cost $295 for all 4 because we have insurance. It's a good thing we have insurance or else it would of cost over $1200. (Don't listen to what your friends say, because it does not hurt. For best results, be put to sleep because you do not feel a thing).
• I didn't pay a thing to have mine out, I've looked after the computers for my dentist for years. You don't need any sort of general sedation, only local. I just had to find my "happy place" while they were being pulled, it only took a few minutes each. Believe it or not but in my experience it hurts more while having a filling.
• My girlfriend just got 2 (bottom) wisdom teeth pulled today, in Medellin Colombia. It cost 300,000 COP (about $125). She had the top 2 pulled a few months back, and it was cheaper (they came out easy). For about $400 round trip from Miami, $200 to have teeth pulled, you still have quite a bit left over for a vacation, hotels, etc. to enjoy Another Country.
• I would recommend carefully considering the need for sedation, which our Marin, California dentist was trying to "sell" us at around $500! My kid had three teeth that were not impacted and one that was slightly. We refused the sell job on the sedation and my son said the procedure was nothing to worry about. It took 20 minutes and we saved a lot. I'm also pretty sure that sedation is not covered by many insurance companies. It is probably because it is not necessary. Let's face it, if you have impacted teeth and are going to be sitting there with your mouth open for an hour or more, then maybe sedation is the way to go. If not, don't be sold on something that is not necessary. I was shocked at the line of BS we were given to try and get us to go for the $500 pop. Unethical in my opinion.

my son needs his out. for 4 teeth $1900.00

i just got all 4 of mine taken out today with IV total sedation. it cost me 424.60 but i think insurance took care of most of the price

If you are unsure about the cost you can always ask your dentist office for an estimate... they are very helpful in that aspect.

ANSWER: It just cost me $500. cash/per MOLAR, in NEW YORK, to have extracted under local anesthia.

Answer 3

If everything goes according to plans it should be around 100 dollars. That is about how much I paid when I got mine taken out (I'm not sure what my insurance's portion was). If there are complications and you have to go to an oral surgeon it will be much more expensive.

Answer 4

Php400.00 if the tooth has already came out, its just an extraction.

Php1,000.00 for impacted tooth and you pay for medicine to be used, for every impacted tooth that needs minor surgery in government hospitals, while Php 5,000.00 per tooth for private clinics.

Xray Fee is Php150.00

Answer 5

It depends on where you live because some places cost less than others, and how bad your teeth are. If they just pull them out it would cost less then if they had to drill deep in your jaw because they grew in funny. Also it depends on the type of insureance that you have and how much they would pay for the surgery.

Answer 6

It really depends on the doctor, surgeon etc. But a recent experience with it cost me about 355 for the first half hour and 170 for another 15 min. Like I said, there is no set in stone cost. Each tooth also cost me 270. Not a cheap night out, but wayyyy better than remembering having teeth ripped from my mouth, pay for the anesthesia.

Answer 7

The cost of removing wisdom teeth can vary greatly, depending on a number of factors:

1. How many teeth are being removed? Sometimes not all wisdom teeth require removal.

2. How impacted are the wisdom teeth? Full boney impactions are usually the most costly because they are often the most complicated procedures. This can usually be determined by the dentist or oral surgeon by viewing the teeth on an x-ray.

3. Are there any conditions, such as underlying medical conditions that will complicate the procedure and contribute to the cost?

4. The type of anesthesia used can also affect the cost. Will it be local anesthesia only? IV sedation? Or full general anesthesia? Discuss your options with the surgeon beforehand.

5. Is the surgeon a contracted provider on your insurance plan? If so, he may be obliged to take a lower fee than he might otherwise.

A simple surgical extraction of a single wisdom tooth with local anesthesia can cost just a couple of hundred dollars, while multiple full boney impacted extractions with general anesthesia can cost a few thousand dollars. In any case, you are entitled to know what the upper end of your cost will be before the procedure is done. Talk to your surgeon and get firm answers before you agree to the surgery.

One last piece of advice: Beware of bargains in parachutes and oral surgery.
