Our Periodontal & Implant Services

We deliver comprehensive, target-driven treatments to restore function and comfort to your mouth. Our key treatments include:

Dental Implants

Long-lasting titanium posts integrated into the jawbone can replace individual missing teeth, several teeth in a row, or an entire missing dental arch. Our periodontal team places dental implants for patients near Alexandria.

Scaling and Root Planing

An intensive non-surgical deep cleaning used to treat gum disease. We remove subgingival plaque and jump-start tissue healing for patients from Alexandria and nearby communities.

Gum Grafting

We surgically place tissue to cover exposed roots caused by recession. Gum grafting helps reduce root sensitivity and prevent decay, and we welcome patients from Alexandria for this treatment.

Bone Grafting

Regenerative treatment to rebuild structural jawbone lost to periodontitis or long-term tooth loss. Serving Alexandria, we use bone grafting to help build a solid foundation for future implants.

Selecting the right surgical specialist makes all the difference for dealing with complex oral health issues. Alexandria residents trust our practice for several key reasons:

State-of-the-Art Technology

We use high-resolution 3D Cone Beam CT imaging to map jaw anatomy, nerve pathways, and bone density before treatment. Our modern dental technology helps us provide surgical precision and accurate care.
