What is the average cost to remove wisdom teeth?
The cost of wisdom tooth extraction depends on the experience of the dentist, the location of the dentist, the type of dental insurance you have, the extent of the procedure, and other factors. Wisdom tooth extraction can range in price from $150 to $350 per tooth. The cost range does not include fees associated with sedation, x-rays, possible oral surgery necessities, or the location of the wisdom tooth. For example, extraction costs for impacted wisdom teeth are significantly higher than for erupted wisdom teeth. Depending on the type of dental insurance you have, insurance companies may extend a 15% reimbursement or up to a 50% absorption of the total procedure costs.
