Wrightsville Beach is roughly a 10 to 15 minute drive from the office — straight in over the drawbridge and down Eastwood Road or Oleander Drive.
Wrightsville Beach patients are some of our closest neighbours. The office is a short run inland over the drawbridge, which makes it practical to schedule the multi-visit appointments that implant and full-mouth work require without giving up a whole day.
Beach living is also hard on teeth in ways worth naming. Sun, salt, an active outdoor life, and a boating or paddling habit all raise the odds of chipped and worn teeth and the occasional knocked-out one. A fair share of our Harbor Island and Shell Island cases start as a fracture that needs a crown and turn into a conversation about the wear pattern behind it.
We regularly see patients from Harbor Island, Shell Island, Parmele Isle, and the south end, and from across the area around Johnnie Mercers Fishing Pier, Wrightsville Beach Park.

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.
If you split the year between Wrightsville Beach and somewhere else, tell us at the consultation. Dr. Pan sequences treatment around seasonal schedules regularly, so the phases that need close follow-up land while you are in town.
