What Are Dental Implants?
Restoring your smile’s function and beauty.
Tooth loss doesn’t mean an end to your smile. Far from it!
While losing a tooth or multiple teeth can be devastating, Dr. Jennifer Pan offers your ideal tooth replacement option: Dental implants.
Implants are permanent and fixed restorations that look and feel natural, so you can enjoy a full smile once again.
Dental implants replace the tooth root to hold your restoration in place. We customize your replacement based on your needs, and this can include a natural-like crown, bridge, or denture.
If you’re experiencing tooth loss for the first time or looking to replace old dentures, then dental implants in Wilmington, NC may be your solution.

Dental implants can give you your confidence back.

Natural-Looking
Implants restore your smile so you can feel confident.
While nobody will know you’ve had dental work, they’ll definitely notice your renewed confidence. We customize your dental implants to your appearance so it blends seamlessly into your smile.
Fully Functional
Bite, chew, eat, laugh, smile, you can do it all!

How Can Dr. Jennifer Pan Help?
Get the beautiful smile you deserve.
You have a team of specialists in your corner! Our Wilmington prosthodontist works with your general dentist and oral surgeon to plan your treatment for the best results and a smooth process.
After the specialist (oral surgeon or periodontist) places the implant, Dr. Pan creates and attaches your custom restoration.
We work closely with you to give you what you’re looking for, matching your new teeth in shape, size, and color for a natural look and feel.
Jennifer M. Pan, DMD Prosthodontist fabricates most restorations (crowns, bridges, all-on-4 implants, etc.) in-house for quality control. If needed, we partner with high-end dental labs as well.
Implant Options
We have the right solutions for you.
Replace All Your Teeth
An implant-retained denture restores all of your teeth or the majority in the upper or lower arch. Regular dentures can slide or fall out, but implant-supported ones stay securely in place using four dental implants on each arch.
Whether you need new dentures or have a lot of missing teeth, this solution may be for you. Get your full smile, confidence, and function back with implant-supported dentures in Wilmington, NC.
Replace Multiple Teeth
An implant-supported bridge replaces several teeth adjacent to one another. Traditional ones “bridge the gap” and are held by crowns attached to adjoining teeth, but this treatment uses crowns attached to implants.
When you have several missing teeth in a row, then an implant-supported bridge may be the answer. We can securely replace multiple missing teeth at once.
Replace a Single Tooth
A single dental implant replaces one missing tooth with a post and crown. Unlike traditional restorations in the past, this procedure replaces the entire tooth from top to bottom (crown to root).
If you’re missing a single tooth or have multiple missing teeth not adjacent to each other, then single dental implants may be for you.
