It depends on your dentist. They might make you pay up front but then they should submit the claim to your insurance company for you. Ask how much they are going to charge you as some of them charge over the fee guide amount so you have to may the extra 20 or so percent.

Will your over bite get better once your wisdom teeth are pulled out?
Probably not. It's an old wives tale that wisdom teeth cause crowding in the front teeth. You would need orthodontics or surgery to move things back enough to correct an overbite.
Why would a dentist require a fee to submit your insurance claim?
I'm not a dentist, but have been marketing dental plans for 10 years. Here's my best guess: 1. Just like airline now charge to check a bag, expenses for dentists ( insurance, equipment, etc.) are increasing. 2. Add that to the fact that a doctor doesn't get paid by an insurance company for WEEKS after a claim is submitted - they need a little something up front. 3. A dentist has to pay someone to submit the paperwork to the insurance companies. Yet another reason why discount dental plans are gaining in popularity compared to traditional "insurance" for your teeth.
Should you be concerned if you bumped your front permanent tooth yesterday and it is a little tender today?
Yes, there should be some concern. It sounds like the tooth has been jarred and may have to be pulled out. The best thing to do is go see a dentist and have him check it out. If it is loose-and it sounds like it is--best to have it pulled out but done by a professional.

What if you don't get your wisdom tooth removed?
Well my bottom 4 front teeth are cramming together because my wisdom teeth are coming in. They were fine before then but also I have heard it that they will mess your jaw up. probably after the pressure of your other teeth forcing it to stay back by the jaw bone. I'm really not sure though. Sounds like whoever asked this question is as scared of the dentist as I am.
