Insurance coverage for wisdom teeth removal varies significantly:
Without insurance, removing all four wisdom teeth in Utah costs approximately $1,100 – $2,600 including IV sedation. Simple extractions run considerably less ($100 – $175 per tooth), while deeply impacted teeth cost more ($250 – $500 per tooth).

Ask: (1) What's the all-in price including sedation and X-rays? (2) What type of impaction do I have? (3) Do you offer payment plans? (4) What's included in follow-up care if there are complications?
