Our Specialist Dental Services

Our team at Washington Periodontics focuses on periodontal treatment and dental implants. Come to our board-certified periodontist, Dr. Karapetian, for the following services:

Deep Cleanings (Scaling & Root Planing)

When gum disease progresses past routine surface cleaning, we treat the infection at its source. For patients near Falls Church, VA, we carefully smooth rough root surfaces and remove hardened plaque beneath the gumline to help your gums heal.

Gum Grafting

Persistent gum recession exposes tooth roots to decay, wear, and painful sensitivity. Serving Falls Church, VA, we rebuild lost soft tissue using thin tissue grafts, renewing a strong, protective gumline.

Dental Implants

Dental implants replace missing teeth from the bottom up. We surgically anchor biocompatible titanium posts directly into the jawbone, which serve as the foundation for your replacement tooth or teeth. We welcome implant patients from Falls Church, VA.

Bone Grafting

Jawbone tissue naturally withers away following tooth loss or long-term gum infection. Through bone grafting, we restore healthy bone density and volume for patients in and around Falls Church, VA, creating a stable jaw structure to anchor implants or secure existing teeth.

Crown Lengthening

By gently reshaping excess gum or bone tissue, we uncover additional natural tooth structure. Crown lengthening prepares teeth for necessary crown restorations or helps rebalance an uneven, gummy smile. Our team provides this procedure for patients near Falls Church, VA.

All-On-4 Dental Implants

Replace an entire row of missing teeth with four optimally positioned dental implants. For patients from Falls Church, VA, we attach a permanent bridge to the implants for a fixed, stable restoration.

Why Falls Church Patients Choose Washington Periodontics

We’re here to help address gum health concerns, repair your jawbone, and rebuild your smile with implants. Our dental team proudly cares for patients from Falls Church, many of whom visit us for the following reasons:
Dedicated Specialty Practice

Because our practice focuses strictly on periodontics and implant surgery rather than general dentistry, our entire office is built for periodontics. From technology to staff training, you can count on us for specialized periodontal care.

Thoughtful Patient Comfort

Surgical procedures sound intimidating, but we want you to feel at ease. Every room features plush neck pillows, warm blankets, and noise-canceling headphones with personal Netflix streaming.

Precision 3D Diagnostics

Before starting treatment, we map out your jawbone density and soft tissue contours using 3D cone-beam imaging. Precise digital planning eliminates messy physical impression trays and promotes accurate solutions.

Upfront Financial Coordination

We understand the importance of financial transparency. We review your insurance policy benefits beforehand and explain low-stress financing plans through CareCredit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral to visit Washington Periodontics from Falls Church?
No, you don’t need a formal referral from a general dentist to book an evaluation at Washington Periodontics. While many family dentists in Falls Church refer their patients to us for gum disease care and implants, we also accept direct patient bookings.
Our Burke practice is roughly 8 to 11 miles south of central Falls Church. The drive usually takes between 18 and 22 minutes via Gallows Road or I-495 S to Braddock Road.
A periodontist specializes in caring for the supporting soft tissue and jawbone around your teeth. Periodontists complete three additional years of post-doctoral surgical residency and focus exclusively on gum care and implants.
Insurance plans view gum treatment as necessary and will therefore cover it in most cases. However, implants may be viewed as optional or cosmetic. As a result, some plans will not cover implants, so you should review your policy details. We check your benefits before care begins and submit claims on your behalf.
No, we do everything we can to keep you comfortable. Local anesthetics numb the area before treatment. Post-treatment recovery is typically mild, and we provide explicit home-care steps to help you.
