About Sea Pines
Oral & Facial Surgery
Our practice is built around one surgeon with one mission: to provide outstanding oral and maxillofacial surgical care for the people of Southeast Georgia. Dr. Hammond opened Sea Pines Oral & Facial Surgery to bring the region a level of training and expertise that was previously unavailable close to home.
Our Commitment to Brunswick and the Golden Isles
We are deeply rooted in this community. Dr. Hammond grew up in Georgia and trained at Georgia institutions, and he chose Brunswick for his practice because this is the place he wanted to serve. From St. Simons Island to Kingsland and beyond, we are committed to making expert surgical care accessible for everyone in the Golden Isles. Our patients come from all corners of the region, and we treat each one with the same respect and compassion we would show our own family.
An Independently Owned, Surgeon-Led Practice
Sea Pines is not a corporate dental chain. Dr. Hammond owns his practice and makes every decision with the patient's best interest in mind. In an era when many oral surgery practices are owned by out-of-town groups, an independently owned, surgeon-led practice offers the kind of accountability and consistency you deserve. You will see the same surgeon from consultation through follow-up, and every question goes straight to the doctor.
Meet Dr. R. Jeremy Hammond, DMD — ABOMS Board Certified
Dr. R. Jeremy Hammond is a Georgia native who earned his dental degree at the Medical College of Georgia (now Augusta University) and completed a rigorous four-year oral and maxillofacial surgery residency at Christiana Care Hospital in Delaware. He then returned home to establish Sea Pines Oral & Facial Surgery. Dr. Hammond is board certified by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery — a distinction that fewer than half of practicing oral surgeons nationwide achieve. For patients seeking an oral and maxillofacial surgeon Brunswick GA, Dr. Hammond's credentials represent a clear difference.

Why Board Certification Matters for Your Care
Board certification means Dr. Hammond has passed a rigorous written and oral examination administered by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. It is a voluntary credential that signals a surgeon's commitment to the highest standards of patient safety, surgical knowledge, and ethical practice. For you, this translates to confidence: the surgeon operating on you has proven expertise beyond the minimum licensing requirements. When you need oral surgery, you should not have to wonder whether your surgeon has the training to handle complications or complex cases. Board certification removes that doubt.

A Practice Built for Patients Who Are Nervous About Surgery
We know that many patients feel anxious about oral surgery. Some have postponed care for years because of fear. At Sea Pines, we take that fear seriously. From your first call to your follow-up visit, you will be met with patience, clear explanations, and genuine care. Sedation options are available to help you relax, and Dr. Hammond and his team are trained to support patients who are especially nervous.
Our patient reviews consistently mention how comfortable people felt, even if they arrived shaking or crying. That is not an accident. It is the result of a practice culture that treats the whole person, not just the procedure.
