J. Alexander Withers DDS

Specializing in gum health and dental implants, J. Alexander Withers DDS offers periodontics in a Fairfax setting where such focused care isn’t always easy to find. Periodontists handle more than routine cleanings—they address gum disease, perform gum grafts, and place implants when teeth are missing or failing. This practice fits into that niche, providing treatments like scaling and root planing alongside cosmetic periodontal procedures. The distinction matters: not every dental office manages complex gum surgeries or bone regeneration, but this one does.

The office sits at 3998 Fair Ridge Dr #130, tucked into a professional plaza near the intersection of Fair Ridge Drive and West Ox Road. Fairfax’s sprawling mix of residential pockets and commercial strips means dental specialists often cluster near major thoroughfares—this location follows that pattern. Parking here mirrors the area’s suburban layout, with spaces allocated for suite visitors rather than street-side metering. For those mapping out a visit, the building’s numbered suites help pinpoint the right door.

Booking a consultation or procedure starts with a call to (703) 997-1647, where the focus remains on periodontal needs rather than general dentistry. First-time patients might check the map to confirm the route—Fair Ridge Drive’s traffic can shift unpredictably during rush hours. The practice doesn’t advertise walk-ins, so planning ahead is part of the process.
