How Much Does Wisdom Teeth Removal Cost in Las Vegas in 2026? (Oral Surgeon Prices Explained)
Introduction
The 4 Factors That Determine Your Total Cost
Factor 1 — Number of teeth. Most patients need all four wisdom teeth removed at once, which is more cost-efficient than multiple visits. If only one or two teeth are causing problems, the price is lower, but so is the surgical complexity.
Factor 2 — Erupted versus impacted. A wisdom tooth that has already broken through the gumline is a standard extraction. A tooth that is partially or fully trapped under bone or gum tissue requires surgical removal — more time, more skill, and higher cost.
Factor 3 — Type of anesthesia. IV sedation (semi-conscious, can feel pressure) is less expensive than general anesthesia (fully unconscious). Many low-price quotes use IV sedation. If you want to be fully asleep, you need general anesthesia — and that
requires an oral surgeon.
Factor 4 — General dentist versus oral surgeon. General dentists typically charge less because their overhead is lower and their training is less specialized. Oral surgeons cost more because they completed a six-year surgical residency, operate in certified surgical facilities, and can manage complex cases and full general anesthesia.
Las Vegas Price Ranges in 2026
Simple extraction (one erupted tooth, local anesthesia only): $150 to $300 per tooth. Surgical extraction (one impacted tooth): $300 to $600 per tooth. All four wisdom teeth at a general dentist with IV sedation: $1,199 to $1,800 total. All four wisdom teeth at an oral surgery practice with general anesthesia: $1,800 to $2,500, often with a separate anesthesia fee.
Selznick Oral Surgery in Las Vegas charges $1,999 all-in for all four wisdom teeth under general anesthesia. That price includes the surgeon’s fee, the anesthesia, the consultation, and all standard follow-up care.
What's Included — and What's Hidden
This is where patients get surprised. Many low-price quotes do not include the consultation ($75 to $150), the panoramic X-ray ($100 to $250), the anesthesia fee ($350 to $900 if charged separately), or post-operative visits. When you add these up, a $1,199 quote can easily become $1,700 before you leave the building.
At Selznick Oral Surgery, the $1,999 price includes all of the above. There is no itemized bill waiting for you at checkout.
Does Insurance Cover Wisdom Teeth Removal in Nevada?
Nevada Medicaid (Nevada Check Up and Nevada Medicaid) covers wisdom teeth removal when the procedure is medically necessary — including impacted cases that pose risk of infection or damage to adjacent teeth. Most PPO dental insurance plans cover 50 to 80 percent of the cost after your deductible, regardless of whether you see a general dentist or an oral surgeon. Selznick Oral Surgery is in-network with many major Nevada insurers. Bring your insurance card to your consultation and our team will verify your benefits before your procedure date.
Financing Options in Las Vegas
If you don’t have insurance or your coverage doesn’t cover the full amount, there are several ways to manage the cost. CareCredit offers 0% financing for 6 or 12 months for qualified applicants — apply online before your appointment. HSA and FSA funds are accepted. Selznick Oral Surgery also offers in-house payment plans for patients who need flexibility. Wisdom teeth removal is not elective in most cases — delaying it for financial reasons typically makes the situation more expensive, not less.
Why Waiting Costs You More
An impacted wisdom tooth left untreated does not stay stable. It continues to press against adjacent teeth, leading to shifting, decay, and damage that can require crowns or root canals on the teeth beside it. Infections around impacted wisdom teeth (pericoronitis) can spread rapidly and require emergency treatment — which is always more expensive and more traumatic than a planned procedure. An emergency extraction at an after-hours facility can cost two to three times what a scheduled procedure costs. The cheapest time to remove wisdom teeth is before they cause a problem.
