Daniel Leach  DMD

Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon

Dr. Leach is a native of Charleston. He attended dental school at the Medical University of South Carolina where he was awarded the DeChamplain Scholarship for Excellence in Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery for his research and dedication to training in oral surgery.

Dr. Leach went on to complete his fellowship and residency at Ohio State University where he spent 5 years training under the president of the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. During his residency program he trained as a registrar in the Maxillofacial Unit at St. James Hospital in Dublin, Ireland and chaperoned a mission trip to Honduras to provide oral surgery services to people who don’t have access to dental care. Upon graduation, Dr. Leach was awarded the highest honor by the OSU board of trustees for Most Outstanding Student in the College of Dentistry.

Dr. Leach is now back in his hometown of Charleston, South Carolina to provide the highest level of care to his community. Dr. Leach is a Diplomate of the American Board of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons, a Fellow of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, member of the Southeastern Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, South Carolina Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, ADA and SCDA.

Sarah Marks Leach  DMD

Dental / Maxillofacial Anesthesiologist

Dr. Sarah Marks Leach graduated from MUSC College of Dental Medicine in 2012. She continued her education by completing both a general practice residency in dentistry and Dental and Maxillofacial Anesthesiology residency at The Ohio State University.

After finishing residency, Dr. Leach was an assistant professor in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Anesthesiology at OSU. Her focus was on resident teaching in ambulatory anesthesia specific for oral surgery and dental procedures in a variety of patient populations, including geriatrics, pediatrics and special needs. Shortly after, Dr. Leach was appointed the Interim Program Director of the Dental Anesthesiology Residency. Dr. Leach has extensive experience during both her residency training and faculty appointment in performing anesthesia specifically for orthognathic surgery, facial trauma, oral pathology, plastic surgery, ENT surgery, full arch restoration with dental implants, and dentoalveolar procedures.

Dr. Leach is a Diplomate of the American Dental Board of Anesthesiology and currently serves as a board examiner for the ADBA exam. She loves her job and special niche in both dentistry and anesthesiology because it allows her to be an advocate for the patient throughout their surgical care to help them achieve optimum oral health without pain or anxiety. Now that she has returned home to South Carolina, she continues to use her unique skillset to offer a more affordable alternative for surgery by providing anesthesia care in an ambulatory surgery setting. Outside of work, Dr. Leach enjoys spending time with family and friends, being a mama to her daughter, Dolly, and exploring all that Charleston has to offer.
