Prices

What does wisdom teeth removal cost in Northeast Philadelphia, PA?

Wisdom teeth removal is quoted after the examination, because the cost depends on tooth position, impaction, and whether sedation is needed. At Alpha Dental Excellence, the consultation for sedation is complimentary and includes a CBCT scan plus a panoramic X-ray, which helps confirm the plan before treatment. If you are comparing costs, that is more specific than procedures like whitening at $500 to $1,200 or bonding at $300 to $700 per tooth, because wisdom tooth surgery varies more from case to case.

Option	Cost range	Visits or timeline	How long it lasts
Wisdom teeth removal	Quoted after the examination	Usually starts with an exam and imaging, then treatment planning	Permanent for the removed teeth
Sedation consultation	Complimentary, a $574 value	One visit, includes CBCT scan and panoramic X-ray	Applies to the treatment plan
Root canal	$600 to $1,500 including the crown	Usually 1 to 2 visits	Often many years with proper care
Implant	$3,500 to $6,000 each, lasting 25+ years	Multiple visits over several months	25+ years

Prices shown are estimates for planning only and are not a quote. Every case differs, and your fee is confirmed in writing after an examination and scan. See the cost calculator for an early indication.

When to act

When should you book wisdom teeth removal?

You should book when the teeth are hurting, trapping food, or pressing on nearby molars, because those problems can worsen fast. In Northeast Philadelphia, patients often choose a short drive to Langhorne, where Alpha Dental Excellence keeps same-day emergency slots open daily. This is especially important if the area is swollen, hard to clean, or painful when chewing. A prompt exam can show whether the teeth are impacted, partially erupted, or likely to affect other teeth.

Common signs to watch for

Pain near the back molarsPain that comes and goes can still signal pressure or impaction.

Swelling or tendernessSwelling often means the area needs a prompt exam.

Food trappingHard-to-clean pockets around the tooth can lead to repeated irritation.

Crowding or pressureIf the back teeth feel tight, the wisdom teeth may be contributing.

Comfort

What sedation options are available for removal?

Oral sedation and IV sedation are both available in house, so anxious patients have two comfort options at one Langhorne office. The complimentary sedation consultation includes a CBCT scan and panoramic X-ray, which helps match the plan to the level of discomfort and complexity. That matters if you have delayed care because of fear, a strong gag reflex, or a difficult extraction. The office can review what the scan shows and explain the next step before you commit to treatment.

Why sedation helps

Less anxietySedation can make the appointment feel more manageable.

Better for complex casesImpacted teeth and longer visits can be easier with sedation.

In-house planningThe exam, scan, and X-ray are handled at the same office.

No cost to startThe consultation is complimentary, a $574 value.

The appointment

What happens at the first visit?

The first visit usually includes an exam, imaging, and a treatment discussion so the dentist can confirm whether removal is needed. At this office, the sedation consultation adds a CBCT scan and panoramic X-ray, giving Northeast Philadelphia patients a clear plan before they schedule surgery. That approach helps reduce guesswork. It also gives you a chance to ask about recovery, timing, and whether one or multiple wisdom teeth should be removed together.
