Socket Preservation in Lorton
Lorton is a growing southern Fairfax County community near the Occoquan River and the Workhouse Arts Center, and when it comes to socket preservation, the community trusts the team of periodontists at Precision Periodontics & Implant Dentistry in Alexandria. Socket preservation is a bone-grafting procedure performed immediately after a tooth extraction to prevent the natural collapse and resorption of the surrounding bone and soft tissue.
We welcome patients from Lorton and surrounding areas to our Alexandria office, conveniently located about 20 minutes away. Without socket preservation, the extraction site can lose up to 50% of its width within the first year, potentially making future implant placement more complex or even impossible without additional grafting.
Why Precision Periodontics
Board-certified periodontists serving Lorton.
As a practice with six board-certified periodontists, Precision Periodontics offers a level of specialized care that sets us apart in socket preservation. Our periodontists place bone graft material into the extraction socket and cover it with a protective membrane. This simple procedure at the time of extraction preserves bone volume and dramatically simplifies future implant treatment. Our Lorton patients appreciate both our clinical skill and our genuinely caring approach.
