Had mine pulled a couple of weeks ago. Sticker price was ~2800 and insurance paid 1200. I had to pay the difference out of pocket.

talk to the dentist and explain your situation, not all, but "some" will work with you and your budget.

my dentist normally would charge insurance around $1500 but since i had none and had to pay cash out of pocket he only charged me $800 to remove all 4 of my wisdom teeth

Easy:
1. Commit and get convicted of a felony.
2. Get put in Angola
3. Have Billy Cannon do it on the state's dime.

There you go

An oral surgeon removed mine for free. Of course, he was also doing a third surgery on my broken jaw from a car accident, so deductibles had been met long ago. I was in pre-op and the surgeon tells me he will take my wisdom teeth out as well if I'd like since he was gonna be in there anyway.
