Case Description
I'm not 100% sure, but I think I need to have a wisdom tooth pulled. My right cheek is swollen and it's painful to open my mouth. The pain is originating from the top right last wisdom tooth. I don't have insurance and I haven't seen a dentist in over 10 years. Is Western Dental a good place to go? And how much would an extraction cost?

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.
