Carolina Beach is roughly a 20 to 25 minute drive up Carolina Beach Road (US-421) to our Oleander Drive office.
There is no prosthodontist on Pleasure Island, so Carolina Beach patients who need implants, a full-arch restoration, or a complex crown and bridge case drive up US-421 for it. It is a straight run with no bridges to wait on, which makes the multi-visit appointments this work requires far more practical than the distance suggests.
Island life is also harder on teeth than most people expect. Between an outdoor, on-the-water lifestyle and a fair amount of sugar and acid from a beach-town diet, we see a steady stream of Carolina Beach patients with chipped, cracked, and worn teeth that started as one bad bite on something hard.
We regularly see patients from Wilmington Beach, Hanby Beach, the north end, and the Boardwalk district, and from across the area around the Carolina Beach Boardwalk, Carolina Beach State Park.

Implant-supported dentures are dentures that attach to a few dental implants for added stability and comfort. Instead of resting loosely on the gums, they "snap" onto implants to help keep them secure.
They are removable for cleaning, but stay firmly in place while you wear them — making them much more stable than traditional dentures.
We evaluate your smile, place a small number of implants, and create a custom denture that securely attaches to them. After healing, your final denture is fitted and adjusted for comfort.
We examine your oral health, review your goals, and determine if implant-supported dentures are right for you.
A few dental implants are placed to support your denture, and we design your custom restoration.
Once healed, your denture is attached to the implants and adjusted for a secure, comfortable fit.
You leave with a more stable, confident smile that allows you to eat and speak with greater ease.
We design implant-supported dentures with a focus on comfort, fit, and function. Every case is carefully planned to help you eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
Year-round residents and seasonal owners both plan treatment around the summer crush. Tell us at the consultation which you are, and Dr. Pan sequences appointments so the stages that need close monitoring do not land in the middle of your busiest weeks.
