    “When I found out that I needed to come see Dr. Young, my mom told me that I was going to be getting my wisdom teeth out, and to be honest, I was not very happy about it. I get really nervous about having to go see doctors of any sort. When I came to see Dr. Young, he was very, very inviting. He came in the room with a bright smile, and I know that I asked him way too many questions. He honestly answered all of them very patiently, and we actually had a really good time talking about it, and I learned a lot. He was very informative. My nerves were very, very calmed by how he handled me as a patient, and he didn’t speak down to me at all, he just informed me.

    Elizabeth’s Story

    “I came to see Dr. Lewallen to get my wisdom teeth extracted. It wasn’t anything like I thought it was going to be like. It was very easygoing. There was no pain like I thought it would be. The swelling is what scared me the most, and I didn’t have any of that. Dr. Lewallen called me after the procedure. I had never actually had a physician call me after any procedure I’ve had in the past, so that was very nice that he cared enough to contact me afterward to see how I was doing. If any of my friends in Thompson’s Station need to have their wisdom teeth removed, I would recommend Dr. Lewallen.”

    Austin’s Story

    “I came to see Dr. Clark because I needed to get my wisdom teeth taken out, and I also needed to get a gum grafting surgery. My gums were too low from brushing my teeth too much, actually, so he had to take gum from the roof of my mouth and stitch it onto the base of my teeth right here to make sure my teeth don’t fall out as I get older. I was nervous that I would be put to sleep and that something would happen or go wrong and that I wouldn’t be able to eat solid food for the next couple days and that it would hurt. Dr. Clark is a very calm person, and so whenever I kind of came into the room, he was just telling me everything’s going to be okay; he’s done this a million times and he’s really good at what he does. I don’t remember the procedure just because I was asleep, but whenever I woke up, I didn’t really feel anything, and it didn’t feel like it took too long at all. My recovery was very well; I recovered within the next week, and I was eating solid food after that, and everything went really well. Yes, I would absolutely recommend Southern Oral & Facial Surgery.”

    An extraction, bone graft, and dental implant alleviated Ross’ discomfort and left him with healthy and complete smile.

    Ross’ Story

    “I had a real problem with a molar in my upper mouth, and I went to see a person who might do a root canal on it, and that person said there wasn’t enough bone there for that to be done. It would just be wasting my money, and she recommended that I come see Dr. Clark and have the tooth extracted. When I first saw Dr. Clark, he said he’d have no problem doing the extraction, but because I had significant bone loss, he had to first do something, which he called a sinus lift, and then again, because of insufficient bone, Dr. Clark said I had to have some bone grafting done, which would take a little extra time. So, he did all that, and then when I had sufficient bone, he did the implant, and I now have a nice tooth in there, painlessly. Yes, I would very much recommend Dr. Clark.”

    “I met Dr. Young after some trouble with a four-tooth bridge that was getting worse. We had it checked and found that the root of the anchor tooth was broken, so I went in, and we had to see about how to repair that. Since it was three to four teeth we were considering, I also had a wisdom tooth extracted, and then Dr. Young was able to put in three dental implants and line everything up perfectly. After each procedure, Dr. Young would call me. He would ask how I was doing. He would ask if I needed anything, ask how I felt, and it meant a lot. I would recommend Southern Oral & Facial Surgery, probably Dr. Young, and I have already recommended them to several people.”

I expected to hear a lot of crunching and pulling, and it was just so — he was very gentle but very secure in what he was doing. The experience is — it shines through, that he’s got a lot of confidence, and he tells you what he’s doing and why he’s doing it. Never talked down to me like I was someone who wouldn’t understand the medical side of it, and I really appreciated that. I would definitely recommend that they come see Dr. Sean Young if anyone needs a dental implant.”

His office staff came in, and they walked me through the financial responsibilities, and I had the procedure the same day. It took about an hour and a half, and the procedure was over. I went home; I took the pain medication or the medications as prescribed. I had absolutely no discomfort, no swelling; it was easy. And then that night, Dr. Clark gave me a call. It wasn’t a courtesy call. I could tell that he was sincere about it. The next day, I got up and felt fine. There was no problems whatsoever. I’ve had three implants done, with two different oral surgeons, and again, I would go nowhere else. I recommend going to Southern Oral Facial Surgery for anyone in the Spring Hill, TN area.”

So, they put in a bridge at the time, and I had that bridge up until this last year, and I just felt like it was time to put in an implant because I figured it’d look a lot nicer. Dr. Clark’s great. I’ve actually had to be in here…or, I have been in here a few times over the last year while he performed different things because it obviously took about six months to go through the whole procedure, and he’s been great every single time.

I’m very happy with the work he did. The procedure went great. I came in, and he did extract the tooth — there was not much left — and then he put a post in and let it heal, and then I came back in and had my implant put in. Dr. Clark is a very smart man. He is very good at explaining what he does, and so you have a good understanding of the process and procedures you’re going through. He’s very personable, very friendly. My wife and I both love him.

    “Well, I was in need of some dental implants, and quite frankly, I had gone to one of his competitors for my first implant and did not really like the procedure the way that it was performed, and I had heard a lot about Dr. Clark from my dentist, and he recommended him — highly recommended him. Several years ago, I had two teeth extracted on the bottom and had bridges put in, and the bridges were just getting old — probably 15 years old — and felt the need to have those removed. So I came to Dr. Clark to have those implants put in in absence of the bridge. I’m quite impressed with the first implant that Dr. Clark performed, and it was almost night and day to the first. Whereas when you go to some doctors, they come in, they say hi, and they perform the procedure, and then they’re off to the next patient. But Dr. Clark is the type of fella where actually you can get to know him. Southern Oral & Facial Surgery has the best staff in this industry.”

    John’s oral surgery was smoother than he expected, and he’s so glad he came to see Dr. Clark.

    John’s Story

    “Well, I came to see Dr. Clark because he had an excellent reputation. I had some problems with my dentures, and I was told that he could resolve those issues. I’d been told by a lot of other dentists and oral surgeons that they were probably impossible to resolve, and if they were to be resolved, it would be extraordinarily expensive. Well, he did say I had a problem, but he could resolve it. He removed the bridge that was there and put in posts and attached and redid the dentures I had. Dr. Clark is an extremely nice fellow. He’s quiet; he’s not one who brags about what he can do, he just does what he says and says what he does. Any time I came to a dental office, I expect to walk out of there with a lot of pain and a lot of misery, and none of that occurred. I walked out of here with the smile that I walked in with. Great staff, great people. If you come to see Dr. Clark, you’ll be smiling the rest of your life.”

    After her tooth fell out, Cindy came to Dr. Clark for a dental implant. Now, she loves her complete smile.

    Cindy’s Story

    “Well, my daughter-in-law, Sara, works here in Franklin, TN and recommended Dr. Clark because one afternoon, I was at a movie and part of my tooth fell out in my lap, and she recommended that Dr. Clark to possibly do a dental implant for me. Everyone was just very very friendly and just made me feel comfortable – the nurses as well as Dr. Clark himself. I remember when he first came in the room, he took my hand and just held it gently, and that gave me a comfortable feeling. The way they do the impressions, it’s so much easier, and, I mean, it was perfect from the day one. When they put the crown on, it worked perfectly, and they never had to adjust anything. If any of my friends needed a dental implant from Shelbyville, Murfreesboro, Lewisburg, I would definitely recommend Dr. Clark because he is awesome.”

    The fact that Dr. Clark is a dual-degree surgeon put Irene at ease about her oral surgery care.

    Irene’s Story

    “I came to see Dr. Clark; I was referred by my dentist that I needed an extraction because I had a gum infection, and the bone was deteriorating. When I got here, I had met with Dr. Clark; I was extremely apprehensive because I had never had anything like this done, but after meeting with him I was very much at ease and understood the fact that I was going to have to have an extraction done and then an implant. I was also impressed with the fact that he has a medical MD, which also put me at ease and showed me that his expertise is even more experienced than somebody who might not be. The staff, actually there are different personalities, but each one of them are very experienced, know exactly how to handle anxiety, and give you detailed information of what the steps of the procedure will be. Actually, my extraction was just about pain-free. My recovery was excellent, and I do want to add this that being in the medical field, the care was absolutely phenomenal, and Dr. Clark personally makes a call to check on you to make sure you’re okay, and it was very impressive.”

    After undergoing extractions and dental implants, Jason feels much more confident about his smile and loves to show it off.

    Jason’s Story

    “Well, I came to see Dr. Clark to have my, actually, front two teeth extracted and implants placed. I had my front two teeth knocked out when I was very young, and basically, they were starting to fall out. I was a little nervous coming in at first, just because I didn’t know what to expect, kind of unfamiliar with the whole process. But once I came in, Dr. Clark and his staff was very good at explaining what was going to happen. My procedure went great; Dr. Clark said it was clinically almost perfect. I have a great smile now, very confident when I can talk and smile, so I was very pleased with the outcome. I would recommend Dr. Clark to any of my family, friends, associates; he is a great doctor, and I had a great experience with him.”

    “I came to see Dr. Young to have teeth extracted and implants put in. I had teeth that were not able to be saved. I love coming in here; everybody’s so nice to me, and the procedures go by really, really quick, and I had no pain. I had a little bit of just throbbing after the initial implant, but after that, I had nothing; I didn’t have to take any pain medicine at all. Dr. Young is just so much fun; he’s always really nice, comes in with a smile, lets you know exactly what needs to be done and gets you right in. If anybody in the Brentwood, Spring Hill, Franklin area ever needed to have implants or extractions, I would definitely recommend Dr. Young and his staff.”

    “Well, I had a bridge, and one of the teeth under the bridge had abscessed, and so I had to have a root canal. After the root canal healed, then I came to Dr. Young because there were two teeth missing, and so I had to have an implant. I asked them, and I don’t know what it’s called, but I asked them for some of that, it’s joy juice or something, to sort of put me to sleep. They talked me through; he and his nurse were awesome. They talked me through the whole procedure, and it was not bad at all. I would recommend Dr. Young in a heartbeat. He is really awesome.”

    “I came to see Dr. Clark for two different procedures having dental implants done. I had tooth extraction work done and bone grafting done. The staff at Clark Oral & Facial Surgery is great; they’re easy to work with, they are pleasant, they’re informative. Dr. Clark is patient; he is very well trained, very well respected. He’s calming; he is efficient. I would highly recommend Southern Oral & Facial Surgery. I would not recommend anyone anywhere else, and I would never take my children anywhere else other than to this practice. They’re wonderful, completely have alleviated my dental phobia. I just think the world of them; they’re great — highly recommend it.”

    Knowing that Dr. Clark holds both dental and medical degrees made Sharalee feel extremely confident in her treatment with him.

    Sharalee’s Story

    “I came to see Dr. Clark because I’d had a failed dental implant, and I was looking for a second opinion to attempt a second one. He established a treatment plan where we could rebuild some of the tissue by using my own tissue to do a successful (hopefully) tissue graft, and then a bone graft to get more bone density so that we could once again attempt an implant. I was nervous, but I was desperate enough to just hope that he would have a way that would work. Dr. Clark took the time to review my case, and he came back with confidence. It helped me knowing that he was also a medical doctor and had lots of experience. I have now had a successful tissue and bone graft, and in a couple weeks, we’ll be able to attempt the, hopefully, final implant. The staff here at Southern Oral & Facial Surgery — very kind, very helpful, and I’ve enjoyed when I worked with them. I think they’re great; I recommend it!”

    General Tooth Extractions – March 2019

    Robert’s tooth extraction was faster and more comfortable than he imagined, and he loves his dental implant.

    Robert’s Story

    “Well, actually, I went to my regular dentist, and I had a crown come out. I thought it just had to be cemented back in, and after my dentist looked at it, he realized that my tooth was broken. So he referred me to Dr. Lewallen in the office near Brentwood, TN. Back in the 50s and 60s, dentistry basically consisted of you go to the dentist to get a tooth extracted, or you go to the dentist to get a filling. Crowns and those type things, other than partials…that was science fiction then. I woke up, I thought, after about 15 minutes, and he said, “OK, you’re ready to go.” I said, “Boy, that was quick,” and he looked at me and said, “Well, you’ve been here an hour and a half.” I said, “You’re kidding.” I said, “I have no pain. I feel the same I did as I walked in the door.” I said, “I don’t get it,” and he said, “Well, this is the new dentistry.” So, was I pleased? Oh, you just can’t believe how much I was pleased. Visit Dr. Lewallen near Brentwood, TN.”

    Alice needed multiple teeth extracted, and the procedure was easier than she ever imagined thanks to Dr. Lewallen’s guidance.

    Alice’s Story

    “Well, I’m not a young person anymore, and teeth do not last forever, so I needed to have some extractions in the back of my mouth, as well as to have an extraction of a root that had been broken off in a prior extraction. The first time I met Dr. Lewallen was here. I did not have any prior knowledge, experience, references, or anything for him. It was all much less dramatic than I had expected. I thought it was going to be a big deal, but with this doctor, he did this with no problems whatsoever. Well, I feel very great because it was absolutely painless, no problem. I was worried to death, of course, for nothing. I would highly recommend Dr. Lewallen. They will not be sorry they went to see him.”

    “Well, I relocated to a new area in town, and I went to one of the associates of Dr. Young’s, and they noticed some dental work that I needed to have done that was beyond repair, so I had to have an extraction done. Well, when I was told I needed an extraction, I felt kind of nervous about it and was concerned about the details of what was going to have to be done. Dr. Young was very helpful in explaining to me the procedures and what he would do and how he would get it accomplished, and I felt a lot more comfortable once he explained it. He’s a really good guy. Dr. Young is a very patient-oriented doctor. I’d say he has excellent bedside manners or chairside manners. I would recommend Dr. Young for my family or my friends. He’s definitely top-notch.”

    “I came to Dr. Clark to get my tooth extracted, and I came to Dr. Young to get my hand stitched. My tooth was wiggling, and I needed him to take it out. It’s not very scary because he’s done it before to me, and it doesn’t hurt. Dr. Clark used these tools to take it out. Whenever he’s using the tools, it sometimes tickles. I needed stitches on my hand because I went on a zip line, and I hurt it. I was little nervous about the stitches. After he numbed me, it didn’t hurt. I would recommend my friends would come see Dr. Young and Dr. Clark because they are nice, and they are helpful.”

    Zach had multiple teeth extracted. His recovery afterwards was quick and easy thanks to Dr. Lewallen’s clear directions.

    Zach’s Story

    “I needed two teeth removed to make room for a future implant. The procedure went really well, felt no pain. Again, I kind of felt like I was at home. They made me feel really relaxed, calm, and no pain. The recovery was pretty good; a little bit sore, but they did give me the right pain pills to ease the pain, but other than that, the recovery went really smoothly. Dr. Lewallen walked me through, step by step, before the process started, told me about what was going on, what tools he was going to use, and then told me about how the recovery would take place, so I felt comfortable through the whole process knowing what was exactly going on. I would definitely recommend seeing Dr. Lewallen at Southern Facial Surgery.”

There was a very positive attitude among the reception staff, from Dr. Clark himself, and my treatment coordinator. They made me feel relaxed and actually looking forward to having the procedures done. I had the extractions done all along the top during the first procedure, under anesthetic. Seemed like three seconds; it was an hour and a half to two hours, and I woke up with very minimal discomfort. I would recommend that if you need any type of oral surgery or dental or facial surgery, Dr. Clark’s surgery is the place to come.”

She had what I refer to as shark teeth; she had two of her permanent teeth growing in behind her two front teeth, and the two front teeth were not falling out. I was not nervous at all about bringing Hayden in to see Dr. Clark; he’s a fantastic oral surgeon. Her procedure went very smoothly; they put her at ease very quickly and made sure that she felt comfortable and understood what the procedure was going to entail, and how quickly they were able to pull the teeth out actually made her very comfortable. Her teeth were removed; she felt no pain, and she was smiling when she got out of the chair. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Clark and his staff; it’s a very friendly group, and they make you feel welcome.”

    “I was in a pretty bad car accident and did quite a bit of trauma to my front four teeth, so I was left with a gap between my bottom teeth and top teeth. Ultimately what Dr. Clark — and Dr. Young assisted — what they did was make an incision above my gum line and then lower those four teeth, fill the gap in with bone, and it’s been healing in preparation for some implants in the near future. They’re full doctors that can comfortably and routinely do procedures like that. Even though the one that I went under was fairly unique, the preparation for it was something that they do every day. If any of my friends or family in Nolensville, Spring Hill, Franklin, anything surrounding Nashville, I would give Southern Oral & Facial Surgery my full recommendation.”

    “I had three wisdom teeth remaining in my head as an adult, and one of them had a cyst around it, and it was problematic for my dentist, and he said I needed to come immediately to an oral surgeon and have it removed. I was a bit nervous because I’m not 18 years old, and I think that I knew that the procedure would probably be a little more difficult for me. Dr. Clark was amazing throughout the procedure. He has a very nice bedside manner — I guess chairside manner, you would say — in the dental office. It did make me feel a lot more confident when I read his credentials, and I knew that he was a medical doctor as well as a dentist because I knew my procedure would be complicated, to say the least, and so I thought, this is good that he has these two credentials. I think the practice is great; Dr. Clark was amazing. Like I said, he was very helpful; any time I called, and I had questions, he was there for me along with the other staff, too, so I would highly recommend this practice.”
