Topsail Beach is about a 45 minute drive from our Oleander Drive office, down the island and across to US-17.
Topsail Beach is the quiet end of Topsail Island, and it is a genuine drive to any specialist. Our Topsail Beach patients tend to be people who have decided that a complex case deserves a prosthodontist and are willing to travel for it rather than have it done piecemeal closer to home.
Many are seasonal or semi-retired, splitting the year between the island and somewhere else. That shapes how we plan treatment: phases that need close follow-up get scheduled while you are in town, with clear guidance for the stretches when you are not.
We regularly see patients from the south end, Serenity Point, the sound side, and Queens Grant, and from across the area around the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue, Topsail Sound.

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.
If you are only on the island part of the year, tell us your dates at the consultation. Dr. Pan sequences implant and reconstruction cases around seasonal schedules routinely.
