Sneads Ferry is about a 50 minute drive to our Oleander Drive office, south on US-17.
Sneads Ferry sits between the New River and Topsail Island, with a working waterfront and a large military-connected population from Camp Lejeune next door. Both groups turn up in our chairs for the same reason: hard use.
Commercial fishing and military service are physical, and physical work produces cracked teeth, knocked-out teeth, and the kind of wear that comes from years of clenching. Those are restorative problems, and rebuilding a bite that has been ground down over a decade is squarely prosthodontic work.
We regularly see patients from Sneads Ferry, Fulchers Landing, North Topsail Beach, and Holly Ridge, and from across the area around the New River, the shrimp docks.

Inlays and onlays are custom-made restorations used when a tooth is too damaged for a simple filling but doesn't need a full crown.
An inlay fits within the grooves of a tooth, while an onlay also covers one or more of its points (cusps). Both are crafted to match your tooth and bonded securely for a precise, natural-looking repair that preserves more of your healthy tooth.
We evaluate the tooth, remove any damage, and take a precise impression. Your custom restoration is crafted to fit exactly and bonded securely for a strong, natural finish.
We examine the tooth and determine whether an inlay or onlay is the best way to restore it.
The damaged area is gently removed and the tooth is prepared and impressioned for a precise fit.
Your inlay or onlay is crafted to match your tooth in shape and color.
Your restoration is bonded securely and adjusted for a comfortable, natural-feeling bite.
We focus on saving as much of your natural tooth as possible while restoring full strength and a seamless look. Each inlay or onlay is precisely designed and fitted for lasting results.
Deployment and rotation schedules make continuity difficult. If you are working around one, tell us at the consultation and Dr. Pan will build the treatment sequence around the time you actually have.
