Dalila Yoon: Wisdom tooth extraction is a dental procedure for insurance purposes. It will be covered under your dental insurance.

Rosio Pasculli: It's a dental procedure but if it is done in the hospital, many medical insurance companies will cover it. Check your policy to make sure or ask the oral surgeon's office to check for you. To make sure there will be no surprises, have the oral surgeon send in a predetermination BEFORE having anything done. When it comes back you will know exactly what is or is not covered and how much.
