A Rare Combination of Clinical
Excellence and Compassion
Dr. Marlin has extensive experience in perio-prosthesis (salvaging compromised teeth) and all-inclusive implant care, from precision implant placement and bone grafting to insertion of the final restoration, all under one roof. In a warm and caring environment, our highly professional dream team provides compassionate care enhanced with oral and IV sedation dentistry. We follow a comprehensive approach to dental evaluations and treatment recommendations and believe exceptional dental care is built on experience, skill, compassion, and integrity.
Skill
Since establishing his private practice in Washington, DC, Dr. Marlin has continuously refined his skills and maintained an unremitting dedication to excellence. Due to this commitment and outstanding skills, Elite Prosthetic Dentistry patients enjoy optimal aesthetic restorations that last over 35 years versus the national average of seven to 10 years.
Compassion
Consultations are scheduled at the end of the day to allow sufficient time to address all your questions and concerns. Our entire team strives to deliver the best care with a compassionate touch in a setting where you feel heard, comfortable, and confident you’ve chosen the right practice!
Integrity
Dr. Marlin provides one-on-one discussions, listens carefully to your concerns, and makes evidence-based recommendations to improve your smile function, appearance, oral health, and overall well-being. Delivering dental care with the highest degree of integrity means you’ll always be treated with the utmost respect and kindness; we’ll never recommend or pressure you into procedures you don’t need, and we aren’t satisfied with your smile until you are!
Creating Precision Results at
our State-of-the-Art Dental Lab
Since 1985, we’ve maintained our own private dental lab where all our restorations are crafted to Dr. Marlin’s exacting specifications. An in-house dental lab provides 100% quality control and enhances our ability to replicate your natural tooth shape, internal shade, and translucency. This level of customized craftsmanship simply can’t be matched with an off-site, commercial lab. Our dental lab technician meets with you chairside to ensure your crown or restoration is expertly crafted for a perfect fit and natural-looking beauty!
Advancing Dental Implant Technology
for Improved Outcomes
Among his many achievements, Dr. Marlin pioneered and patented the technique for creating custom, anatomic implant abutments with a complete emergence profile (contour of the dental restoration where it meets the gum tissue). His patented implant system solves many problems with restoring angled and rotated implants, with 14,000 implants restored to date using this technology.

Full Arch Dental Implants
If you’re struggling with the many physical and emotional repercussions of extensive tooth loss, full arch dental implants in Washington, DC, provide a transformative, long-lasting solution. Dr. Marlin is dedicated to creating the most optimal treatment plan to fit your needs and is skilled in various full arch protocols, from streamlined All-on-4 to the most sophisticated hybrid techniques. Unlike many implant dentists who table bone to place implants, he enhances it to ensure the best possible outcome.
Full Mouth Reconstruction
Full mouth reconstruction is a comprehensive dental treatment involving rebuilding or restoring your teeth, gums, and bites to improve functionality and aesthetics. The process typically requires a combination of customized dental procedures, including front tooth replacement, dental crowns, bridges, bone augmentation, and dental implant placement and restoration. The goal is to improve your dental function, oral health, and speaking ability, with the benefit of greatly improved smile confidence and beauty.

A customized smile makeover includes a combination of cosmetic dentistry procedures focused on delivering ultimate radiance and beauty. Depending on your unique needs, your smile makeover may consist of dental crowns and bridges, porcelain veneers, tooth whitening, inlays or onlays, and gum contouring.
