Oral Surgeon in Sumter, SC

Oral surgery covers a wide range of procedures designed to treat issues beneath the surface of your smile—conditions that can’t always be addressed with routine dental care. At Wesmark Family Dentistry, we provide surgical treatment in a setting that prioritizes your comfort, safety, and long-term oral health.
Whether you’re dealing with impacted wisdom teeth, tooth loss, or jaw discomfort, our experienced oral surgeon in Sumter, SC, is here to deliver the care you need with a steady hand and a clear plan.
When Is Oral Surgery Necessary?
Oral surgery is recommended when less invasive dental treatments won’t resolve the problem. Here are some common reasons you might need oral surgery:
- Impacted wisdom teeth causing pain or infection
- Severely damaged or decayed teeth that cannot be saved
- Preparation for dental implants to replace missing teeth
- Jaw alignment issues requiring corrective surgery
- Removal of cysts, tumors, or abnormal growths in the mouth
- Facial trauma or injuries involving teeth or jawbone
If you’re experiencing persistent pain, swelling, or difficulty chewing, it’s important to consult with our oral surgeon to determine whether surgery is the best option.
Our Oral Surgery Procedures
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth often don’t have enough space to come in properly, leading to pain, infection, or damage to neighboring teeth. Our team carefully evaluates your wisdom teeth through examination and X-rays.
If removal is necessary, we perform the procedure using local anesthesia or sedation to ensure you’re comfortable throughout.
