So this is the best sub-forum I could find to post this question.
My question is: how much approx. will having wisdom teeth removed cost?

Im 17, turning 18 in July and I am kinda screwed. I have no insurance, and have been taking ibuprofen for like the last 4 months to deal with the aching of my wisdom teeth coming in. So about how much will it cost and are there any money saving tips you guys have?

well the first thing to do is to get examined to determine if they are healthy teeth or not and if there is room for them.i dont know where you are but i would google free clinics and try to go that route.im 56 and still have my wisdom teeth.they are healthy and there was room for them but it hurt like a bitch for about 3 years as they would come in some and then recede.it seemed like an eternity.if you are in the u.s. like i think you are pulling them will be expensive.even more so if there are complications.i would look to church groups and charities to try to find a less expensive alternative.

Men you have to do something with it ! Taking ibuprofen for 4 monts is not healthy in any way.

Depends on the procedure. I had mine take on not to long ago and it cost about $800. The Wisdom teeth were not yet through the gum and the surgery basically was to crush the teeth and remove the fragments. There are Dental Student building where people can get there teeth worked on for free for the most part

I guess you should see a dentist. She/he can advise you of the next best thing to do. Taking self medications for that long isn't good for you, I believe. Keep yourself healthy and do what's best for you to make you pain-free, of course not taking self medications though we know it can help a bit but it is always better safe than sorry, as they say.
