For Referring Dentists

Specialist support for the cases that need specialist hands.

We treat the referral relationship as the practice we want to keep. Your patient comes back to you for the restoration. The communication is clear. The cases are handled the way you would handle them if you had three more years of surgical training.

What we co-manage

The cases that benefit from specialist hands.

We are not trying to replace your general dentistry. We are the surgical and periodontal specialty arm that supports the cases where specialist training matters most.

Crown lengthening before restorative work

Esthetic and functional crown lengthening so your restoration has the biological width it needs.

Bone and tissue grafting before implant placement

Ridge preservation, lateral augmentation, sinus lift, and soft tissue grafting to make implant placement possible.

Extraction with immediate ridge preservation

Routine extractions paired with grafting at the same visit to preserve bone for future implant or denture work.

Implant placement coordinated with your restoration

We place the implant in the position your restoration requires. Your team makes the crown, bridge, or denture.

Failing implant rescue and peri-implantitis management

LAPIP and peri-implantitis treatment when an existing implant is showing signs of trouble.

Full-arch case planning and surgical execution

Comprehensive treatment planning for terminal dentition cases, with surgical phase delivered in our office.

Soft tissue grafting for recession or implant esthetics

Connective tissue grafting, pinhole technique, donor matrix grafting — selected per case.

Treatment of advanced periodontitis

LANAP laser therapy, regenerative grafting, and traditional surgery for cases beyond hygiene-level management.

How a referral flows

From your office to ours and back to yours.

  1. 01

    Submit the case

    Send the secure form (or call for urgent cases). Include patient contact info, brief case description, any imaging you have, and an indication of urgency.

  2. 02

    We reach the patient

    Our team reaches out to the patient within one business day to schedule. We confirm we have the right person and the right information.

  3. 03

    Consultation with your patient

    Comprehensive consult including any imaging needed. Patient leaves with a written treatment plan and a clear understanding of what comes next.

  4. 04

    You hear back

    Consult summary back to your office within several business days, including findings, planned treatment, and the role you'll play in restoration. Urgent cases prompt a direct call.

  5. 05

    Surgical phase

    We complete the periodontal or implant phase in our office. Patient is referred back to you with documentation for your restorative phase.

  6. 06

    Restorative collaboration

    Direct coordination on impressions, abutment selection, and final restoration timing. Your patient comes back to you for the restoration — by design.

Our communication promise

You hear back, every time.

A consult summary back to the referring office within several business days of the appointment, including findings, planned treatment, and the role you’ll play in restoration.

Direct doctor-to-doctor calls for any case where the path is non-obvious. We assume you want to be in the loop, not informed after.

Urgent cases get same-day response. Call the practice directly.

Restorative coordination on every implant case — impressions, abutment selection, and final restoration timing. We make sure your part of the case is set up to succeed.

Urgent referral indicators

If you are seeing any of these, please call us directly rather than going through the form.

  • Acute periodontal abscess or rapidly progressing infection
  • Implant pain, mobility, or visible bone loss on radiographs
  • Trauma resulting in tooth or implant displacement
  • Failed extraction site with concern for bony involvement
  • Suspected oral lesion requiring specialist evaluation
Call (202) 659-3500

Restorative collaboration

The implant position is determined by your restoration.

Every implant case we plan starts with what the final tooth needs to look like. Your treatment plan for the crown, bridge, or denture drives where we place the implant — not the other way around.

For straightforward single-tooth cases this is fast: a brief conversation, a planning workflow, and execution. For full-arch and esthetic-zone cases we recommend a planning consult with you, the patient, and us in the same conversation. We are flexible about how we make that happen.

We use guided surgery techniques where they add precision. We provide impressions, scan abutments, or temporary teeth in the form your workflow needs.

Continuing education

Lunch-and-learns, case reviews, and CE.

Periodic continuing-education sessions hosted at our office or yours. Case-review meetings to walk through cases you’ve sent us.
