Factors That Affect Wisdom Teeth Removal Costs
The condition of your teeth, how your wisdom teeth are positioned, and whether your wisdom teeth have erupted through the gums will determine how complex your procedure will be and influence your wisdom teeth removal cost. Common scenarios include:
Fully Erupted Wisdom Teeth
The simplest extraction is when your wisdom teeth have come through the gums and are fully erupted. The procedure is quick, and patients need only minimal anesthesia to remain comfortable.
Impacted Wisdom Teeth
If your wisdom teeth are trapped under the gums, extraction becomes more difficult. In many cases, the tooth is held in place by bone, which requires extra steps to remove it. However, our Tampa practice uses advanced imaging that allows us to determine in advance how difficult the procedure will be.
My Wisdom Tooth Is Infected Should I Get a Root Canal?
/
If your wisdom tooth is infected, the typical route is to simply extract it and avoid a root canal. Wisdom teeth can have unusual roots, which may make a root canal difficult. However, there are some cases in which a root canal treatment may be recommended. Our surgeons will examine your tooth to determine what is appropriate in your case.
Other Costs Associated With Wisdom Teeth Removal
Our Tampa practice knows patients want to be fully informed about costs. In addition to the actual surgery, there are other costs that can affect what you will pay.
To ensure complete transparency about costs, we will carefully explain pricing with you during your consultation so you won’t be faced with surprise billing. Other costs typically associated with wisdom tooth removal include:
Before starting treatment, we use sophisticated imaging for a more complete understanding of how difficult your wisdom tooth removal will be. Imaging also helps us avoid complications, such as damage to nearby nerves.
Advanced Oral Surgery of Tampa can personalize sedation to your needs. Our team is fully certified in general anesthesia and extraordinarily well trained.
While bone grafts are often not required after an extraction, there are times when a bone graft is necessary to help support nearby teeth. This is typically a simple procedure our doctors can perform when the tooth is removed.
Will I Need a Dental Implant to Replace My Wisdom Tooth?
/
Unlike most other teeth, patients typically do not need to replace an extracted wisdom tooth. Third molars, your wisdom teeth, aren't necessary for your bite to function correctly. In fact, many people undergo wisdom teeth extraction because the wisdom tooth is causing problems.

Staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. Was not looking forward to having my wisdom teeth removed, but Dr. D and Owen were both very reassuring and made me as comfortable as possible. Would highly recommend this place if you need any type of oral procedures done.
