“Dr Withers and his office staff are excellent! Using his unique knowlege of laser treatment, he saved me pain and expense with a treatment taking less than 30 minutes. It is well worth an appointment to see what he can offer you!”
All-on-4 is a full-arch tooth replacement solution that uses just four strategically placed implants to support a fixed prosthetic. Ideal for patients with extensive tooth loss or limited bone density, this option offers same-day function, improved aesthetics, and a dramatic boost in quality of life.
Personalized Periodontal Treatment
By focusing solely on periodontics, Dr. Withers is able to address all types of cases in-office. For patients experiencing earlier stages of gum disease, we might recommend thorough deep cleanings (scaling and root planing) to eliminate infection and protect your gums and bone tissue. For more advanced cases, we also provide surgical periodontal procedures.
At the Laser Periodontal Center of Northern Virginia, we’re proud to offer LANAP, a breakthrough laser system that treats gum disease with minimal discomfort and reduced recovery times. Regardless of your unique needs, our advanced treatment options are designed to help you keep your natural teeth, avoid future complications, and improve your overall health.
At our Fairfax office, cutting-edge technology is an essential part of every diagnosis and treatment. Dr. Withers uses a digital workflow to enhance precision, comfort, and outcomes across all services. Tools like digital X-rays and cone beam CT scanning allow us to create highly accurate treatment plans while minimizing exposure and discomfort.
Whether you’re receiving dental implants, periodontal therapy, or advanced surgical care, you can expect modern solutions designed to protect your oral health and improve the entire patient experience.
