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.

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 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.
