How much does wisdom tooth extraction cost in Melbourne?

The cost of tooth removal in Melbourne can vary depending on several factors, such as the type of procedure (simple procedure or surgical procedure), the number of teeth being removed, and whether you have private health insurance.

At Gorgeous Smiles, we offer simple and surgical wisdom tooth extractions starting at just $350 per tooth. The tooth removal costs may be higher if you need to have multiple teeth removed or if your procedure is more complex.

Is Wisdom Tooth Extraction Expensive?

Imagine dealing with the pain and discomfort of an impacted wisdom tooth for the rest of your life. You'll also have to be careful about what you eat and how you clean your teeth to avoid damaging the tooth and surrounding gum tissue. You can avoid this hassle by removing your wisdom teeth early on.

While teeth removal can initially seem expensive, it's important to remember that it's a one-time procedure. It will save you a lot of pain and inconvenience in the long run.

What Affects the Price of Wisdom Tooth Removal?

As mentioned above, several factors can influence the price of tooth removal. But, besides the actual procedure, there are a few other things that you should take into account:

1. The Number of Wisdom Teeth

If you only have one wisdom tooth that needs to be removed, the cost will be lower than if you need multiple teeth extracted. The procedure becomes more complex when more than one tooth is involved.

2. The Position of the Wisdom Tooth

If your wisdom tooth is impacted (stuck in the gum), it will be more difficult to remove wisdom teeth, and, as a result, the procedure will be more expensive.

3. Your Location

Wisdom tooth removal tends to be cheaper in rural areas than a dental clinic in major cities. There is less competition among dentists in rural areas, so they can charge lower prices.

4. Your Insurance Coverage

If you have health insurance, your policy will likely cover at least part of the cost of wisdom tooth removal. However, it's always an excellent idea to check with your insurer before booking the procedure to ensure you're covered.

5. The Dentist's Experience

As with any medical process, the cost of removal surgery will be higher if you choose a general dentist with more experience. They can perform the major dental procedures more quickly and with fewer complications.
