Tooth Exposure in Rosslyn
Rosslyn is a bustling Arlington neighborhood with a dramatic skyline directly across the Key Bridge from Georgetown, and when it comes to tooth exposure, the community trusts the team of periodontists at Precision Periodontics & Implant Dentistry in Washington DC. Tooth exposure is a minor surgical procedure to uncover an impacted or unerupted tooth — most commonly a canine — and attach an orthodontic bracket so the tooth can be guided into its proper position.
Impacted canines and other teeth that fail to erupt on their own need to be surgically exposed so orthodontic treatment can bring them into alignment, preserving the natural tooth rather than extracting it. From Rosslyn, our Washington DC office is approximately 8 minutes away, making it easy to receive tooth exposure treatment without a long commute.
Why Precision Periodontics
Board-certified periodontists serving Rosslyn.
Our periodontists make a small incision in the gum tissue to expose the crown of the impacted tooth, then bond an orthodontic bracket and chain to it. The orthodontist then gradually guides the tooth into its correct position in the arch. Our team includes six board-certified periodontists — Drs. Zalewsky, Alani, Artis, Daru, Lakkis, and Ganesh — giving Rosslyn patients access to a depth of expertise unmatched in the DC metro area.
