Why Implants

The only replacement that works like a root.

A post in the jawbone takes the load a tooth root used to carry. Nothing else does that: a denture rests on the gum, and a conventional bridge leans on the teeth either side of the gap.

  • Healthy neighboring teeth are left alone
  • The bone under the gap keeps a load, so it recedes far less
  • No adhesive, no slipping, nothing taken out at night
  • Looked after like a natural tooth: brush, floss, six-month visits
  • Designed to last decades
Step by Step

From the first scan in Alexandria to the final tooth.

An examination, a cone-beam scan and a straight answer: whether you are a candidate, the cost and the timeline, all before you commit.

Treat what comes first

Extractions, gum treatment or bone grafting where the scan shows a need, so the implant has sound bone to fuse with.

Guided placement

The implant goes in through a guide printed from your scan, usually within a few hours, with nitrous oxide or oral sedation for comfort.

Questions

Dental implants in Alexandria: questions.

What do dental implants cost in Alexandria?
Your price comes from your own scan: how many teeth, how long they have been missing, the materials, and whether bone or gum needs treatment first. It is laid out at the consultation along with insurance and financing, and claims are filed for you.Cost and financing →
Which number do I call to book?
New patients call (571) 617-7245; current patients call (703) 940-5410.
Is it the same specialist as in McLean?
Yes. Dr. Esam Nahlah sees implant patients at both offices, with the same team and a laboratory in each building.Meet Dr. Nahlah →
Will implant surgery hurt?
It is done with sedation, so you stay relaxed and feel no pain during it. Afterwards most people manage with over-the-counter medication and are back to normal within about a week.
What if I have lost bone?
Many patients qualify after bone grafting or extractions. Grafting is its own procedure, with several months of healing before the implant goes in.
How do I care for an implant?
Like a natural tooth: brush twice a day, floss once, and keep the six-month cleanings, which also keep the five-year warranty.The five-year warranty →
