Why Choose a Prosthodontist for Dental Implants?

A prosthodontist completes 3+ years of advanced training beyond dental school, specializing exclusively in tooth replacement and restoration. Implant placement and restoration is the core of Dr. Gerald Marlin's practice, supported by decades of focused clinical experience.

Precision Surgical Placement

Every implant is placed using CBCT 3D imaging and computer-guided surgery for exact positioning. This means less pain, faster healing, and implants that last decades.

In-House Dental Lab

Your crown, bridge, or full-arch restoration is designed and fabricated on-site. No outsourcing. No guesswork. Dr. Gerald Marlin personally oversees every restoration for a natural fit and finish.

Implant Revision and Correction

If an existing implant is not functioning as expected, Dr. Gerald Marlin specializes in diagnosing the cause and developing a corrective plan. In many cases, the situation can be resolved without starting over.

What Sets a Specialist Practice Apart

Not all implant practices operate the same way. Dr. Gerald Marlin's approach is built around individualized case planning, precision placement, and in-house laboratory control at every stage.

One Doctor, Start to Finish
