All wisdom tooth need not necessarily be extracted. Unless there is a specific reason. We at our Chennai centre with all our expertise try to save all the teeth to the fullest extent unless a need arises for extraction. U may Practo consult ( paid consultation) if you want an elaborate discussion and second opinion.

Wisdom tooth pain is usually recurrent and leads to inflammation around the teeth called pericoronitis. In such situations it's better to get it extracted.
Cost ranges from 4000 and above as it will be a surgical procedure in which trimming of little bit of bone around the tooth is required.
Next Steps
consult an oral and maxillofacial surgeon for the treatment
