Four Decades of Excellence in Family Dental Care

For more than 40 years, families throughout Coastal Carolina have trusted us to keep their smiles healthy and confident. We take pride in building relationships that last, offering care rooted in integrity, experience, and a genuine commitment to your well-being.

Modern Technology That Redefines the Dental Experience

With innovative technology, we make your dental visits smoother, faster, and more comfortable than ever. With digital imaging, 3D facial scans, and an in-house lab, we oversee every step of your restorations, ensuring a perfect fit and faster turnaround every time.

Plan Your Care With Confidence

Choosing treatment is easier when you understand the full condition of your smile. We assess your oral health, bite alignment, tooth strength, missing teeth, and cosmetic goals to identify the options that best fit your needs.

Legacy Prosthodontics then develops a customized plan designed to address current concerns while protecting the long-term health, stability, and appearance of your smile.

When you want to preview and carefully coordinate several changes before beginning cosmetic or restorative treatment

Plan Confidently for the Cost of Care

Insurance may lower the cost of some dental services, but the amount covered varies from one policy to another. Legacy Prosthodontics will help you review your benefits and provide an estimate so you have a clearer understanding of costs before moving forward.

  • Dental procedures: Exams, cleanings, fillings, and X-rays frequently qualify for preventive or basic benefits. Your plan’s contribution can be affected by its deductible, annual cap, network requirements, and timing guidelines.
  • Restorative procedures: Care that preserves damaged teeth or replaces teeth that have been lost may be partially covered when it improves oral health or function. This may include crowns, bridges, dentures, implants, or selected stages of full-mouth treatment.
  • Cosmetic procedures: Services intended solely to enhance the look of the smile are usually paid for out of pocket. Common examples include veneers, enamel reshaping, and elective cosmetic planning.

We also offer financing and flexible payment solutions to help patients move forward when insurance does not cover the entire treatment cost.

Recommendations Tailored to Your Smile

No two patients begin with the same oral health needs, dental history, or goals. Our prosthodontists examine your teeth, bite alignment, jawbone, existing dental work, and any areas affecting your comfort, confidence, or ability to chew.

These findings allow us to recommend a personalized combination of treatments focused on long-term stability and a natural appearance. We will walk you through every recommendation so you understand your choices before care begins.
