Wee Care has been amazing for us and our girls. They’ve seen us after hours and gotten back to us promptly even when my daughter was jaundice after coming home from the hospital. We’ve seen multiple providers and they’ve all been great!
When a child needs oral surgery, the last thing a parent wants is a referral across town to a clinic that’s never met their family. Wee Care Pediatrics does it differently. Our oral surgery care happens inside the same practice that already knows your child—their dentist, their orthodontist, and their pediatrician are all just down the hall.
That matters for more than convenience. Because everyone is on one team and one chart, the surgeon planning your teen’s extraction can see their orthodontic timeline, their medical history, and any anxiety notes before they ever sit in the chair. Treatment gets approved faster, hand-offs don’t fall through the cracks, and you spend far less time repeating the same story to a new front desk.
For families in Syracuse, West Point, Clinton, Clearfield, Layton, and across northern Davis County, it means specialized surgical care without the runaround, handled by people you already trust.
Need to be seen quickly? Same-day visits are almost always available for dental emergencies, and we make routine consultations easy to book around school and work. We accept Medicaid and most major dental plans.
Oral surgery isn’t only a teenage milestone. The needs change at every stage—a stubborn baby tooth that won’t budge, a permanent tooth that comes in sideways, or wisdom teeth that crowd a nearly finished smile. Our team handles that full range, so your family has one place to turn whether your child is six or sixteen.
For most teens and young adults, wisdom teeth are the first real surgery they'll ever face, and the nerves are normal. We take the pressure off with clear, plain-language explanations and pain management matched to each patient, so a procedure that sounds scary turns into a smooth, well-supported day. Many Syracuse-area families schedule extractions over school breaks to keep recovery low-stress.
A tooth that can't break through the gum properly can crowd its neighbors, throw off a bite, and stall orthodontic progress. Removing or exposing an impacted tooth at the right moment protects the rest of the smile and clears the way for braces to do their job. Because our surgeon and orthodontist share the same chart, the timing is coordinated rather than guessed at.
When a tooth is trapped below the gumline, an expose-and-bond procedure gently uncovers it and attaches a small bracket so the orthodontist can guide it into place. It's a precise, comfortable step that often makes the difference between a quick orthodontic result and a drawn-out one. We keep it efficient and gentle, and your child walks out ready for the next phase of treatment.
From the first consultation through recovery check-ins, our focus is a calm, positive experience, especially for younger or anxious patients. And because the surgery is woven into your child's broader dental and orthodontic plan, every step is coordinated rather than siloed. Fewer surprises, fewer extra trips, and a recovery that's actually planned for.

All Wee Care Pediatrics dental patients have access to our oral surgery team, and procedures are currently performed at our Syracuse office, convenient for families throughout West Point, Clinton, Clearfield, Layton, and the surrounding area.
If your child is already a Wee Care dental or orthodontic patient, our surgeon can usually step in directly, since the records are already in-house. New families are welcome, just call or text (801) 773-8644 and we’ll walk you through getting started.
We accept Medicaid and most dental insurance plans. We recommend contacting your carrier to confirm our office is in-network with your specific plan, and our team is glad to help you sort out coverage before treatment.
Absolutely. We welcome parents in the treatment room, and many children do best with mom or dad nearby. That said, every child is different—some relax more when a parent waits just outside—so your oral surgeon may suggest whichever setup helps your child stay calm.
We love caring for patients with special needs and tailor each visit to the individual child, with the goal of making oral surgery a genuinely positive experience. When it helps, your child’s pediatrician or therapist can consult on the best approach for their care.
