Straight answers and gentle extractions — right here on Bardstown Road.
Wisdom teeth removal in Louisville, KY doesn't have to mean a scary referral across town. At Dentist in Louisville we evaluate, image, and remove wisdom teeth — including many impacted cases — right at our Bardstown Road office, with sedation options that keep you comfortable and Medicaid accepted for covered extractions. Whether your wisdom teeth ache now or your dentist just said they'll be trouble, get a straight answer and a same-week plan.
Erupted wisdom teeth have broken through the gum and can often be removed much like a routine extraction. Impacted wisdom teeth are trapped beneath the gum or bone — angled sideways, stuck against the next molar, or fully encased — and need a surgical approach.
We take digital X-rays to see exactly how each tooth sits, then tell you honestly which kind of removal you need, what it costs, and whether it can be done here the same week. Not every wisdom tooth needs to come out; if yours can safely stay, we will say so.
Nobody should white-knuckle a wisdom tooth extraction. Depending on the complexity of your case and your anxiety level, we offer options from local numbing alone to nitrous oxide and deeper sedation, so you stay relaxed from the first instrument to the last stitch.
Wisdom tooth extraction cost depends on whether the tooth is erupted or impacted and which sedation you choose — and we quote it in writing before we begin. Most dental insurance covers medically necessary extractions, KY Medicaid covers qualifying cases, and our interest-free in-house payment plan covers the rest.
