A 23-year-old male asked:

About how much would it cost w/out insurance for a single wisdom tooth extraction? i only have one, slightly impacted, and hasn't come out of gum.

Varies greatly: If fairly easy with local anesthetic in a lower fee location, possibly $150 or somewhat less, but if difficult, with general anesthesia, at an expensive location, much more $. Possibly a dental school may be an option for you.

Depends: Office fees vary, and so does the fee with the difficulty of the extraction. Will you need to be put to sleep? That adds to the cost. Can range from $ 150 to $1000.
