Rocky Point is about a 30 minute drive to our Oleander Drive office, straight down I-40 and US-117.
Rocky Point is rural Pender County, and getting to Wilmington is easy in a way that surprises people: straight down I-40 with no bridges and no beach traffic, usually about half an hour.
Rural counties tend to have fewer dental specialists per capita, and Pender is no exception. For implants, dentures that actually fit, or a full mouth that needs rebuilding, Rocky Point patients come into Wilmington, and the highway makes that far less of an ordeal than the mileage implies.
We regularly see patients from Rocky Point, Currie, the Long Creek area, and Hampstead's western edge, and from across the area around the Northeast Cape Fear River, Holly Shelter Game Land.

TMJ/TMD treatment addresses pain and dysfunction in the jaw joints and muscles that control how you bite and chew.
If you experience jaw pain, clicking, clenching, or bite-related discomfort, Dr. Pan can evaluate the cause and create a personalized plan to relieve it and protect your teeth.
We evaluate your jaw, bite, and symptoms, identify the underlying cause, and build a personalized plan that may include a custom night guard, bite therapy, or restorative care.
We listen to your symptoms and complete a detailed evaluation of your jaw, bite, and teeth.
Dr. Pan identifies what's driving your discomfort — clenching, grinding, bite imbalance, or worn teeth.
Your plan may include a custom night guard, bite adjustment, or restorative care to relieve strain and protect your teeth.
We follow up to fine-tune your treatment so you can bite, chew, and rest more comfortably.
As a prosthodontist, Dr. Pan has advanced training in how the teeth, bite, and jaw work together. She looks for the underlying cause — not just the symptom — and starts with the most conservative options.
The I-40 route is reliable enough that we can offer Rocky Point patients early appointments without much risk of traffic making you late.
