Your Dental Home in Fredericksburg Since 2012
General dentistry, cosmetic care, and an in-house implant team: all under one roof. Dr. Waris and Dr. Arafa work through every case together, so what we recommend is only what you actually need.

Two Doctors, One Standard of Care

Dr. Mohammed Ali Waris, DDS
Dr. Waris earned his DDS from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2020 and has practiced in Fredericksburg ever since, seeing families through everything from a first cavity to a full smile makeover. He’s a member of the American Dental Association and trained in Invisalign, and he regularly teaches and mentors other dentists, a habit that shapes how he explains things chairside.
Ask him a question and he’ll answer it plainly, before he ever tells you what he’d recommend.

Dr. Mohamed Arafa
Dr. Arafa opened Advanced Dental Care of Fredericksburg in 2012 and has built the practice around a simple idea: implant care shouldn’t require three different offices. He places and restores implants himself, from a single tooth to a full-arch All-on-4 case, so patients stay with one team from consultation to final tooth.
He works through every case with the team before recommending anything, and he mentors other dentists on implant and oral surgery technique.

A Dentist Who Teaches Other Dentists
Dr. Waris regularly teaches and mentors other dentists. The habit shows chairside: explaining a procedure to a colleague and explaining it to you are the same skill, and it is why you will hear the reasoning behind a recommendation here rather than just the recommendation.
In-Network, Medicaid-Accepted, No Guessing on Cost
New patients are always welcome. Your first visit takes about an hour: a full exam with the doctor, X-rays, a digital scan, and a straightforward conversation about what we found, and what, if anything, we’d recommend next.
We’re in-network with most major PPO plans and accept Medicaid: call and we’ll check your specific coverage before your visit. For anything insurance doesn’t cover, we offer financing through CareCredit, Cherry, Sunbit, and LendingPoint, plus in-house payment plans.
Fri: 8:00 AM–3:00 PM
