Call dentist: You could have an infection so call the dentist that did the extraction asap.

Follow up: You should call the dentist who treated you. If you are not on antibiotics, it may be a good idea to get on one. Four hours after a procedure is sudden to be experiencing a fever, but not unlikely. Why was only part of the tooth pulled?
