What affects the price of wisdom tooth removal?

  • Simple or surgical: the biggest factor. Lower wisdom teeth are more likely to need surgery.
  • How deep and at what angle the tooth sits: a tooth fully under the bone, or lying sideways, takes longer to remove.
  • How close it is to the nerve: may need extra X-rays, such as a 3D scan, before surgery.
  • How many teeth: removing several teeth in one visit costs more in total, but means one recovery period.
  • Sedation: local anaesthetic is usually included. Sedation costs extra where offered.
  • Consultation and X-rays: often charged separately. Wisdom Insight Essentials covers both for $58 nett.

Can you use Medisave for wisdom tooth removal?

Yes, but only for surgical removal. Simple extractions cannot be claimed.

  • How much you can claim: the Medisave limit is set by the CPF Board based on how the surgery is classified. Your dentist will tell you the claimable amount before surgery.
  • Whose Medisave: Singapore Citizens and PRs can use their own Medisave, or a spouse’s, parent’s or child’s, with their consent.
  • What you pay: any amount above the Medisave limit is paid in cash.

Frequently asked questions about wisdom tooth removal costs

How much is wisdom tooth extraction in Singapore in 2026?

In 2026, a simple wisdom tooth extraction costs about $150 to $400 per tooth, and surgical removal about $650 to $2,000 or more per tooth at private clinics. At WeSmile Dental, simple extraction starts from $212.55 and surgical removal from $1,547.80 (incl. GST).

Can I use Medisave for wisdom tooth removal?

Yes, for surgical removal only. Simple extractions cannot be claimed. The claimable amount depends on how the surgery is classified, and your dentist will confirm it before surgery.

Does CHAS cover wisdom tooth extraction?

CHAS covers simple extractions and X-rays, with subsidies of up to $45.50 to $78.50 per back tooth depending on your card. Surgical removal is not on the CHAS subsidy list.

Why is wisdom tooth surgery more expensive than extraction?

Surgery is needed when the tooth is stuck under the gum or bone. It involves a small cut in the gum, sometimes removing bone, and stitches, so it takes longer and needs more skill than a simple extraction.

How much does a wisdom tooth consultation cost?

At WeSmile Dental, Wisdom Insight Essentials costs $58 nett and includes full mouth X-rays, a wisdom tooth assessment and treatment advice.

Do I need an X-ray before wisdom tooth removal?

Yes. A full mouth X-ray shows the position of the tooth, its roots and how close it is to the nerve. This decides whether you need a simple extraction or surgery.
