The cost of wisdom teeth removal depends on how many teeth come out, whether they're impacted, and the sedation you choose. Most dental plans cover part of it. Dr. Dansie's team works with your insurance and offers payment plans.
What changes the cost
| Factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Number of teeth | Removing one tooth costs less than removing four. |
| Impacted or not | Teeth that are stuck in the gum or bone take more time than teeth that have come through. |
| Sedation | Oral and IV sedation usually add to the cost of local numbing alone. |
| Your insurance plan | Plans differ in what share they pay and how much of your yearly maximum is left. |
Using your dental insurance
Most dental plans cover part of wisdom teeth removal, especially when teeth are impacted. Bring your insurance card. The office checks your benefits for you and explains what the plan pays and what you'll owe.
No dental insurance?
Ask the office for the cash price after your exam, and whether it has its own dental savings or membership plan. Some partner offices offer one for their patients.
Payment plans
Dr. Dansie's team offers payment plans so you can spread the cost out. Ask about them when you book.
