That's for 8 wisdom teeth. My sons was $1200 and my daughter $1600. My sons wt were out so the regular dentist was able to do it. Daughter had to go to an oral surgeon. The price also includes anesthesia.

These are fair prices for around here. Hey...it's only money and it won't do me any good when i die so i might as well spend it on the kids now! :lol:

I'm in the process of getting an implant. An old root-canalled tooth just broke off a couple months ago, so it's either live with the hole in my head or do the implant. Can you say Chaaaaarrrge It!! By the time the oral surgeon does his job, and then the dentist does his job, that one tooth will cost close to $4 K. Now why couldn't it have been a molar?

I have to say the surgery was almost painless. I woke up once during the night and Advil took care of it. So far, so good.

So hows she doing mama? All four teeth at once seems like a big deal. Ouchie.
For some reason my moms never came in and I didn't think mine would either, till recently I have just one coming in on the top right thats poking out sideways. :roll:

She's doing great. I don't understand why they prescribe painkillers when she still feels the pain. Ibuprofin works better than painkillers.
