Case Description
My dentist recomended me to take all the 4 wisdom tooth,my age is 27.I have 2 impacted wisdom tooth on my lowerside whose ends are very close to the jaw nerve, and the 2 upper ones are not impacted and they are not touching my sinuses. My right side upperone has cavity. I went to oral surgeon,they charged 2500 overall,but my insurance can cover only 1500 for whole year, and I have to pay 1000 from my pocket. Is this too expensive?,or will it take this much amount to cover all expenses including IVprocedure,Consultation and post operative consultation?Help please! I live in Fremont . So anybody nearby can answer my question.

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

This is reasonable. In Union City the UOP Dental School has a clinic and you may be able to save some money being seen there. University of the Pacific 1203 J Street Union City 510 489-5200. I usually tell my patients that what they save in money they will spend in time. All the best, Paula
