One consultation, then seven treatments.

Every case at the Tysons Corner office starts with the same first visit; what follows depends on your scan and on what you want to change. If nerves have kept you away, say so when you book.

The Office

Suite 220, on the second floor.

The office is Suite 220, on the second floor of 7901 Jones Branch Drive in Tysons, with parking under the building. Six surgical suites, the cone-beam scanner and the dental laboratory share that floor, so the scan, the implant surgery and the making of your teeth happen without sending you, or your case, anywhere else.

Opening hours, directions from your door and the list of what to bring are kept on the Tysons Corner office page, which is the one to read before a first visit.
