What a New Smile Can Do for You
Our patients don't come in asking for "porcelain laminate veneers." They come in wanting to feel confident in photos, stop hiding their teeth when they laugh, and walk into a room knowing they look their best. That is what we deliver.
Smile Makeovers
A complete transformation of your smile's shape, color, and alignment. Designed around your face, your features, your vision.
Porcelain Veneers
Thin, hand-crafted porcelain shells bonded to the front of your teeth. Fixes chips, gaps, discoloration, and minor misalignment in as few as two visits.
Teeth Whitening
Professional-grade whitening that goes far beyond drugstore strips. Dramatic, even results with minimal sensitivity.
Gummy Smile Correction
Reshape the gum line to reveal more tooth structure and create a balanced, proportionate smile you are proud to show.
Why Discerning Patients Choose Dr. Gerald Marlin
There is a reason patients travel from Georgetown, McLean, Great Falls, and Potomac for their cosmetic work. Dr. Gerald Marlin is not a general dentist who offers cosmetic services on the side. He is a prosthodontist who has dedicated his entire career to the art of creating beautiful, lasting smiles.
On-Site Ceramist Lab
Your veneers and crowns are hand-crafted in-house, not mass-produced in an overseas lab. Dr. Gerald Marlin works directly with the ceramist to match shade, translucency, and shape to your natural teeth.
Digital Smile Design
See a preview of your new smile before any work begins. We use advanced imaging to plan every detail so there are no surprises.
Restorations That Last 10-20+ Years
The national average for cosmetic restorations is 7-10 years. Our patients routinely see their work hold up for two decades or more because we refuse to cut corners.
