ImplantsDC: Dr. Israel Puterman and Dr. Chris Barth

Dental implant specialists often bridge the gap between restorative dentistry and periodontal care—an overlap that requires precision in both placement and long-term gum health. Practices in this niche typically address everything from single-tooth replacements to full-arch reconstructions, with procedures like bone grafting or sinus lifts becoming part of the conversation when structural support is limited. The intersection of periodontics and implantology means patients dealing with gum disease or bone loss may find solutions that go beyond traditional dentures or bridges; instead, the focus shifts to integrating artificial roots that function—and feel—like natural teeth.

Chevy Chase’s 5454 Wisconsin Ave #1550 is home to a practice handling exactly this kind of work, where the address places it among the professional offices near the MD-DC line.
