Do You Need Emergency Tooth Extraction?

Call So We Can Help!

Tooth Extraction

At Haley Julian Dental Arts, we understand the thought of a tooth extraction can be stressful. You may be worried about the procedure itself, how your smile will look afterward, or how you’ll eat and function without the tooth. Dr. Haley Julian and her caring team are here to guide and support you and ensure you feel informed, comfortable, and confident in your care.

While it's always best to preserve natural teeth as long as possible, there are cases when removing a tooth is the best option for your long-term oral health. Dr. Julian carefully evaluates each case using digital imaging and advanced diagnostics to ensure extraction is the safest, healthiest option.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are post-extraction recovery tips?

Proper care during the first few days after tooth extraction significantly impacts your healing process and helps prevent complications. Understanding what to expect and following recovery guidelines carefully will help ensure a smooth healing experience.

Initial 24 Hours Post-Extraction

The first day is crucial for proper healing. During this time, a blood clot forms in the extraction site, protecting the underlying bone and nerve endings. To support this process:

Keep gentle but firm pressure on gauze pads for the prescribed time
Avoid rinsing, spitting, or using straws
Rest with your head elevated
Apply ice packs to reduce swelling
Take prescribed medications as directed

Days 2–3 After Tooth Extraction

As initial healing begins, you can gradually return to normal activities while maintaining careful attention to the extraction site:

Begin gentle, warm salt water rinses
Continue soft foods and avoid chewing near the extraction area
Maintain careful oral hygiene while avoiding the extraction site
Continue ice therapy if swelling persists
Take any remaining prescribed medications

Help Is a Phone Call Away!

While complications are rare, contact Haley Julian Dental Arts at (865) 982-4958 if you experience severe pain, persistent bleeding, fever, or loss of the blood clot (dry socket).

Remember, your dentist in Maryville is here for you after your procedure. Don’t hesitate to call us with questions.

Reasons for Tooth Extraction

Before recommending extraction, Dr. Haley Julian will conduct a thorough exam and take digital x-rays. She takes time to answer your questions and address concerns so you feel confident about your treatment decision. Common reasons include:

Severe tooth decay or damage that cannot be repaired with a crown or filling
Advanced gum disease that has weakened tooth support
Infection that cannot be resolved with root canal therapy
Overcrowding or preparing for orthodontic treatment
Erupted wisdom teeth causing pain, misalignment, or infection

Dr. Julian and our team empathize with your concerns and feelings about the procedure. Our approach focuses on gentle, efficient care that prioritizes your well-being.

We plan treatment using advanced technology and work together to ensure a stress-free, pain-free extraction. Our strong local anesthetics numb the area so you won’t feel any pain, and Dr. Julian and our team will check in with you regularly to ensure you’re comfortable.
