Prosthetic Dentistry of Washington DC: Dr. Gerald M. Marlin

Dr. Marlin and team are SKILLED AND CARING. They have been a rock-solid reliable support system for my family for 20 years. 3-D computer design system lets you see your mouth plan in detail. No last minute surprises. They have their own lab on premises. Sleep sedation available for special situations.

I highly recommend Dr. Marlin. I’ve been a patient for six years, and he is extremely precise and knowledgeable, with a real talent for solving difficult problems. He uses advanced imaging and planning software and takes the time to explain each step so you understand the procedure and recovery. After nearly two years with an implant that never felt right and multiple unsuccessful attempts by other dentists, Dr. Marlin identified the issue and performed corrective surgery. The result was remarkable—my crown is now perfectly placed, and I no longer notice it at all. For my second implant, which required a tooth extraction, he planned every stage with extraordinary attention to detail, and the procedure was completely pain-free. I also appreciate that the crowns are made on-site for a precise fit. Dr. Marlin also treated my TMJ with trigger point injections, which provided significant relief. The staff is excellent, and the office is relaxed and professional. Parking beneath the building is especially convenient, and it’s an easy drive from Kensington, Maryland. I highly recommend Dr. Marlin and his team for exceptional dentistry, cleanings, implants, restorative care, mouth guards, and TMJ care.

Dr. Marlin gave me something priceless—trust in dentists. I was nervous but the care I received throughout the process was exceptional and my dental implants feel incredibly natural. Dr. Marlin combines remarkable skill with patience, kindness, and a genuine concern for his patients. And that same warmth extends to everyone in the office—you are always greeted with a smile and treated like you truly matter. I couldn’t be more grateful to Dr. Marlin and his wonderful team. They are simply the best!

I cannot express enough gratitude for Dr. Marlin and his entire team—from the front office staff to the skilled hygienists and technicians. I first came to Dr. Marlin in June 2024 suffering from significant pain caused by numerous food traps, the result of incorrect dental work I had received elsewhere in Florida. The scope of my situation was daunting, involving 15 teeth in total. Dr. Marlin created a comprehensive treatment plan and coordinated seamlessly with other specialists for necessary root canals and crown lengthening procedures. Over the course of a year, the team executed the complex treatment plan with extraordinary care, precision, and skill. Now, a year after completing the treatment in 2025, I am in fantastic shape and pain-free. Although I spend most of my time in Florida, I gladly make the trip to DC for my regular hygiene visits and evaluations. If you are looking for top-tier dental care and a truly outstanding team, I warmly and whole-heartedly recommend Dr. Marlin and his staff!

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Marlin. I came to him with a very challenging cosmetic issue and after seeing several other dentists and getting different opinions, I was starting to feel discouraged. Dr. Marlin was incredibly knowledgeable and meticulous. He took the time to understand exactly what was bothering me and came up with a plan that made a huge difference. The result looks beautiful and natural. One thing I especially appreciated was having an on-site lab specialist involved in the process. Being able to make adjustments and fine-tune the details right there was incredibly helpful. His entire team was also wonderful—everyone was attentive, welcoming, and kind throughout the whole process. They made me feel comfortable and genuinely well cared for at every visit. I would highly recommend Dr. Marlin and his team, especially for anyone dealing with a complicated cosmetic dental case.

My family and I have been patients of Dr. Gerald Marlin for many years. Dr. Marlin developed comprehensive treatment plans for us, including Restorations, Cosmetic Dentistry, and Dental Implants. His exceptional problem-solving skills and attention to detail gave all of us perfect long-lasting results. Throughout the years, we have referred extended family members and friends to the office. Dr. Marlin, and his dedicated support team, have consistently provided the highest level of care and professionalism. I would recommend to anyone looking for outstanding dental care, Dr. Marlin’s Elite Prosthetic Dentistry located in N.W. Washington, DC. Kristen - 2026

Dr. Marlin and his team are great. After years of dealing with two broken teeth, I visited Dr. Marlin for crowns. My experience was nothing but positive. Every single person in the office is incredibly knowledgeable and caring. The team was patient, explained the entire process over several consultations, and all costs were transparent. It was refreshing to work with a dentist that openly discusses cost and insurance options upfront. Additionally, they have a new hygienist on staff that is wonderful to work with. I have raved about my experience at this practice to friends and family.

I have grinded my teeth as long as I can remember. I didn't start wearing a night guard unit my 30s. By then a lot of damage had occurred. By my 60s, my teeth were severely worn. My dentist told me I would need all of my teeth crowned. I did a lot of online research. Dr. Marlin's name came up again and again as the top rated dentist for this. When I met him for the first time, he was very honest about what it would take to restore my teeth. Periodontal work, root canals and then the crowns themselves. The final result is spectacular. Dr. Marlin is one of a kind. Years of experience. A true master craftsman/artist/professional. I couldn't be more pleased . I spent over 80 hours in the dentist chair. I had to drive 2+ hours each way. I used almost all of my vacation time. After it was all completed, my wife asked me if I would I do it again? I told her I would in a heart beat

Dr. Marlin is a real pro. I first went to him after I had a failed dental implant at another practice. He was able to rebuild my bone and successfully place another implant. That was nearly ten years ago and I'm still a happy patient.

Dr. Marlin and his team are a highly professional outfit that knows exactly what they are doing in dealing with complex jaw issues. He meticulously undertook a multistep process to help relieve longstanding jaw tension and headaches I was dealing with. Can't recommend his practice enough.

Improper advertising. went there for free evaluations upon the advertising but there’s nothing free about it, they asked me to pay for x-ray and evaluation fee. When I pointed out advertise, says free, they send me to talk to dentist assistant.

I've been Dr. Marlin's patient since 1983. Over these years, his professional and skilled approach have served me well. During these 40+ years, he has successfully done crowns, bridges, bone grafts, and numerous implants. I can't say enough about the competence and proficiency of Dr. Marlin, his assistants and his staff - it takes a team working well together to deliver the excellent care they provide. I moved from the D.C. area in 2005. Since then, I've "commuted" many hours to the office, first from the Eastern Shore of Virginia and currently from Pennsylvania. Should I relocate again, I'll continue as Elite Prosthetic Dentistry's patient.
