Wisdom Tooth

When is the right time to go for a wisdom tooth extraction? One of mine has just partially started erupting but has already managed to hurt the sides of my cheeks whenever I smile or laugh. Also, what is the average cost of an extraction?

Hello.. you have to get your wisdom tooth extracted as soon as it starts giving you any discomfort/ pain. The earlier you get it surgically removed, it’s better..
Next Steps
Get an OPG done.. and visit an Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon

hi Wisdom tooth  should be removed as soon as it starts  causing pain and trauma.The cost of extraction depends on the positioning of the tooth within the bone.This is assessed by  full mouth x ray (OPG).
Health Tips
please get it extracted by a oral and maxillofacial surgeon.

Get it removed the earliest.  U will feel discomfort for few days.  But it will resolve.  Cost depends on the tooth position as well as the place you undergo the extraction
