Her Story

A North Carolina Native with Specialized Training

Dr. Jennifer Pan grew up in Greensboro, NC, and always knew she wanted to combine science with artistry. After earning her bachelor’s in Public Health at the University of NC at Chapel Hill, she continued her education at ECU School of Medicine and earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree.

But Dr. Pan wanted to go further. She moved to San Francisco to complete a three-year prosthodontic residency at UCSF, paired with clinical training at the San Francisco VA. Those three years focused on the skills general dentists refer out: planning and executing complex full-mouth rehabilitations, designing precise implant restorations, and creating dental work that looks and functions like natural teeth.

Dr. Pan brings her eye for detail, gentle touch, modern technology, and deep understanding of the mouth, teeth, and gums to every patient she sees.

After graduation, Dr. Pan returned to North Carolina, settling in Wilmington to marry her dental school sweetheart. Together, they’re raising their son and daughter in the community they love.

Beyond the Office

Life in Wilmington

Wilmington isn’t just where Dr. Pan practices. It’s home. She chose this coastal community for its warmth, character, and tight-knit feel.

When she’s not in the office, you can find her golfing, kayaking, playing beach volleyball, and trying new restaurants. She also makes time to give back to the community she loves.

That connection to the community shows in how she runs her practice: personal, intentional, and rooted in relationships.

Our office is at 5917 Oleander Drive, Suite 204. Easy to reach from Wrightsville Beach, Porters Neck, Monkey Junction, and the rest of New Hanover County.

In Her Own Words

Part Artist, Part Engineer, Part Quarterback

“That first appointment, you’ll get a full 1.5 hours with Dr. Pan and her assistant. It’s not rushed. It’s not assembly-line dentistry. It’s one patient at a time, one smile at a time.” Dr. Jennifer Pan

What really sets Dr. Pan apart isn’t just her training. It’s her philosophy. She never double-books. Every patient gets her complete, undivided attention. When you’re in the chair, you’re her only patient.

Tiffany

Dental Assistant

Tiffany is a Wilmington native who graduated from the dental assisting program at Cape Fear Community College and has over nine years of experience at a dental laboratory. Her hands-on lab background gives her a unique perspective on patient care. She can picture the final result before treatment even begins. When she’s not in the office, she loves spending time with her animals and listening to murder mystery podcasts.

Tamarra

Patient Care Coordinator

Tamarra brings a warm, personal touch to every patient interaction. Her love of building relationships with patients is clear from your very first call. When she’s not at the office, you’ll find her at the beach, traveling, or enjoying live music with her family.

Giving Back to Wilmington

Education

Dr. Pan gives lectures each year to the local hygiene school at Cape Fear Community College. As a prosthodontic resident, she also gave seminars to predoctoral students at the University of California, San Francisco, where she received her advanced training.

You always know who you’re talking to. We’re a small practice by design.

Detail-Oriented

Every restoration is built with precision and an artist’s touch.

Patient-Focused

Concierge, boutique care. One patient at a time.

★★★★★

“For over a decade, I was ashamed of my smile. It quietly chipped away at my confidence in ways I didn’t even realize. Dr. Pan and Tiffany never once made me feel judged. They were kind, patient, and very informative. They walked me through all of my options and helped me build a plan. I’ve gotten back not only my smile, but also my confidence. I can truly enjoy eating again. Not having healthy teeth had taken so much from me, and thanks to Dr. Pan and her team, I feel like I have it all back.”
