Gentle, Expert Care When You Need It Most
Safe, Comfortable Tooth Removal with a Compassionate Touch
Sometimes the best way to protect your oral health is to remove a problem tooth. Whether it’s due to severe decay, infection, crowding, or trauma, Dr. Terrie Cribbs provides gentle, professional tooth extractions right here in Knoxville, TN.
Why You Might Need a Tooth Extraction
Tooth extraction isn't something we recommend lightly — but in certain situations, it’s the smartest move for your long-term health.
Common reasons for a tooth extraction include:
✓ Severe tooth decay or infection that can’t be restored ✓ Broken or fractured teeth that are beyond repair Advanced gum disease causing loose teeth
✓ Overcrowding before orthodontic treatment ✓ Wisdom teeth removal (impacted or painful)

We’ll always explore other options first, but if an extraction is needed, you’re in excellent hands.
Does a Tooth Extraction Hurt? Not with Us!
One word: no! With today’s modern techniques and anesthesia, most patients say they felt more pressure than pain — and that the relief afterward is worth it.
What to expect:
✓ The area is fully numbed before we begin ✓ Dr. Cribbs performs the extraction with precision and care ✓ Post-treatment instructions are provided for a smooth, comfortable recovery
Bonus: We’ll even call you to check in after the procedure, because you're not just another tooth—you’re a person we care about.
After Your Tooth Extraction: Healing & Next Steps
You’ll receive personalized aftercare instructions and suggestions for tooth replacement options (if needed), such as: • Dental implants • Bridges • Dentures
Dr. Cribbs will walk you through the best plan for restoring your smile and chewing!
