Proudly serving Great Falls, McLean, Fairfax Station, Vienna, Oakton & Burke
From routine cleanings and exams to cosmetic dentistry, complex restorations, and complete family care — Allegra Dental Center offers comprehensive dentistry under one roof. Three doctors, early-morning appointments, English & French spoken, and a team that welcomes federal employees and families across Northern Virginia.
Allegra Dental Center is built on a simple idea: every patient deserves a calm, positive dental experience delivered by a team that truly knows what they're doing. Three doctors, one philosophy.
Led by founder Dr. Nana Dickson with 15+ years of experience (Howard University, 2011), our team also includes Dr. Floyd (Harvard residency) and Dr. Henderson (VCU + Harlem Hospital) — three dentists bringing complementary training across general, complex, and special-needs care.
From a child's first cleaning to senior care, we welcome patients of every age. Dr. Floyd has specific experience with children, medically complex patients, and individuals with special needs.
We know NoVa schedules. Early-morning appointments mean you can fit dentistry around work, school, and commutes — instead of the other way around.
Dr. Dickson built this practice around comfort. Whether it's been years since your last visit or you've had a bad past experience, we work to help every patient feel calm and at ease.
Fairfax-based and easy to reach from D.C., the Pentagon, Tysons, and Northern Virginia. We work with FEDVIP and most federal-employee dental plans.
No insurance? Ask about our In-House Savings Plan — designed to make quality care affordable. Most major PPOs accepted and flexible financing always available.
Your first visit at Allegra Dental Center is calm, thorough, and built around you. Here's how it works — step by step, no surprises.
Book through our online scheduler or call (571) 419-6897. We offer early-morning slots and will walk you through what to bring.
You'll meet Dr. Dickson, Dr. Floyd, or Dr. Henderson personally. We'll review your health history, take digital X-rays, examine your teeth and gums — and listen to anything on your mind.
You'll leave with a personalized plan — what's needed, what can wait, and exactly what it will cost. We verify your insurance, review the In-House Savings Plan if helpful, and never pressure a decision.
Most new patients also receive a professional cleaning during their first visit. From there, we'll see you for regular check-ups — the same friendly team, every time.
Allegra Dental Center offers a full range of dental services for adults, children, and families across Fairfax and Northern Virginia. Three doctors, one calm experience.
The foundation of every healthy smile. Our preventive services protect your teeth and gums and catch issues before they become problems — for the whole family.
Transform your smile with a full range of cosmetic treatments — from subtle improvements to complete smile makeovers, designed around your goals.
We restore decayed or broken teeth to full function using modern materials and techniques — so you can smile, eat, and speak with full confidence again.

Dental emergencies don't wait. We offer same-day priority appointments for severe pain, broken teeth, and lost restorations — focused on getting you out of pain fast.
Experienced, compassionate, and dedicated — our three dentists bring advanced training from Howard, Harvard, and Virginia Commonwealth University, plus a personal touch to every patient visit.
