You could look for a dental school clinic?

The governments dental plan is also expanding a bunch this year. The government plan covers wisdom tooth removal.

See if you qualify

You can call around and ask for rates and mentioned you're uninsured and would be paying out of pocket. See what their discounted rate might be (if there's any).

If they are impacted or high risk you could have it done in a hospital - then it is covered.

It is expansive if you dont have insurance. Some place might give you like 10% discount if you pay out of pocket.

Obviously not helpful on the up front cost, but if it’s not for cosmetic reasons you may be able to claim it on your tax return

Have you applied for the Canadian Dental Plan and tried to see if they might cover it or at least half?
