Our Philosophy
Dr.Omer Akmal, is a Board Certified Periodontist, and has directed our vision towards helping patients to understand how dental disease works, and ways to prevent it. The large amount of health problems area a direct result of our society and lifestyle. It is only through understanding how our environment affects us, that we are able to take control of our health.
“If I lose my career, because everyone understands how to take care of themselves, and there is no more disease for me to treat….I would be happy. The amount of preventable diseases that Americans suffer from can be easily curbed with information and education.“ Dr.Omer Akmal
Dental Anxiety is a major hurdle in patients getting the help they need. This is often due to bad experiences in the past, poor chairside manner of a previous doctor, or just the mass amounts of scary images on TV. We want to help you break these poor stereotypes, and instead see your doctor as a partner, who is here to help you with your health.
We understand every individual’s dental needs are unique and choosing a dentist is an important decision. From the moment you walk in the door, you’ll be welcomed by our caring staff in a modern, contemporary, relaxed setting where the whole family can feel at ease.
Virginia Dental Care offers a full range of dental treatments from General, Cosmetic, Orthodontics, Periodontics, Endodontic, Oral Surgery and Dental Implants to help you achieve your perfect smile. We utilize the latest in dental technology and techniques in order to offer you the best preventive care and treatment available in Arlington.
