Down in South Carolina, we love to fish! A fresh plate of seafood is best enjoyed by teeth that you can depend upon to function correctly and not cause any pain. Dr. Matthew R. Barefoot is board-certified by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (ABOMS) and regularly performs dental implant placement with the support of his exceptional clinical team.
Wisdom teeth, also called third molars, are the last teeth to develop. This usually happens between the mid to late teen years, although some people never develop any at all. In many cases, wisdom teeth do not have enough room in the mouth to emerge without causing expensive and painful problems, such as impaction, infection, dental crowding, pain, and cysts.
If you're anywhere in South Carolina's Lowcountry and struggle with missing teeth, or if you have a smile that you feel you have to hide from others, you may be a candidate for a full-arch restoration. This procedure is sometimes called Same Day Smile because we really can help you achieve a brand new smile in just one day.

After surgery, no wheel chair used at all. The nurse had my son propped up on her dragging him out the door. I would expect a lot better treatment. When we told our orthodontist they were appalled. I’ve never seen anything like that before. I do not recommend and I am wondering if that’s even legal to do. I know when you leave the hospital the make you go out on a wheelchair. Also no follow up from them afterwards.

This is the place to get your wisdom teeth removed! I put off getting my wisdom teeth removed for about 10 years because I was afraid of the pain, but with Dr. Barefoot and his staff, the entire process went way better than expected. I left and healed with little to no pain and they contacted me a few days after the procedure to make sure I was okay.

My 13 year old daughter had a frenectomy done in the office. All office staff we came in contact with were understanding, knowledgeable, and calming. The procedure went well with no issues post surgery. We received two proactive follow up calls to see how she was doing. This made it simple to ask questions and ensure we were on the path to a very quick recovery. I 100% recommend Oral Surgery and Dental Implant Specialists to others in need of care.

I was a recipient of the Wisdom for Wisdom program where I got my wisdom teeth removed for free. I had a great experience. I felt very comfortable and it was a very easy and smooth process at the office. I am very thankful for Dr. Barefoot’s generosity and would 100% refer him to family and friends.

Dr Barefoot and his office are amazing. My son had to have a tooth extraction and needed an oral surgeon. We were referred by his dentist and I must say I couldn’t be more pleased. I was a very nervous momma about the whole experience. He needed sedation and has never had anything like that before. Dr Barefoot was very thorough with explaining things and you can tell he is an expert in his field. The office is super clean, the workers are friendly, and customer service is a top priority. As a healthcare worker I know how important it is to make people feel confident and comfortable with their

I just got my wisdom teeth out by Dr. Barefoot last week and it was a great experience ! Everyone in the office is super nice and calm and made me feel like I was in a professional and safe environment. While getting wisdom teeth out is extremely painful in the days following, I had plenty of support and guidance from the post-op conversations and papers! Bleeding stopped in the first 24 hours! I’m really happy out of all the places in mt pleasant to get wisdom teeth removed, I went to Dr. Barefoot, he’s really nice and made me feel comfortable. If you need your wisdom teeth removed, he is

Always a little scary with serious dental problems, but all was good with Dr. Barefoot and team. Highly recommend this practice for oral surgery needs. Follow up was absolutely impeccable. I had a moment of concern and my fears were quickly addressed. Mount Pleasant and the Charleston area is fortunate to have this high caliber of professionalism in the community.
