“The craftsmanship of the Elite Prosthetic Dentistry group is truly exceptional. The prosthetic they meticulously created for me is a testament to their unwavering commitment to excellence. With a harmonious team working tirelessly onsite, every minute refinement that distinguishes “good enough” from “perfect” was thoughtfully executed. The result? A smile harmonizes flawlessly with my facial features and seamlessly blends with my remaining teeth.
Led by the esteemed Dr. Gerald Marlin, this team of dental artisans had the remarkable ability to transform my challenging dental situations into reasons to smile. After decades of disappointment with various orthodontists, I found myself at the doorstep of Elite Prosthetic Dentistry in Bethesda, feeling like I had reached the end of the road. Little did I know that
this would mark the beginning of a transformative journey.
My dental woes began at the age of 20 when an unfortunate accident led to the bonding of my front tooth and lower teeth with resin. That repair lasted an incredible thirty years, then spiraled into a disaster.
Foolishly, I allowed my regular dentist to attempt to re-bond the tooth. I bit into a soft roll five days later, and the new bonding fell off. So, I allowed her to try again. She shaved the
Injured tooth’s edge a little bit more each time. Without asking, that dentist decided to grind down the neighboring front tooth to match the now-shortened damaged tooth. I was horrified.
A week later, the repaired bonding fell off again anyway. So, I changed to another local dentist, who gave it a third grind and bond. That one remained in place, but, as one might imagine, it was a sight. I didn’t like smiling; I was hesitant to open my mouth.
Additional complexities compounded these challenges: a genetic lack of upper lateral incisors and the use of Invisalign to address hereditary gaps. By the time I reached fifty, I had lost faith in local dentistry and knew it was time to seek the expertise of the best in the business.
Choosing Elite Prosthetic Dentistry was my last “hail Mary” pass at restoration, and it proved to be the best decision I ever made. Their unparalleled skill and artistry restored my smile and
reignited my confidence.
Don’t waste your time with mediocre solutions when Elite Prosthetic Dentistry offers nothing short of perfection. This talent is worth the commute!”

To undergo a dental project under Dr. Marlin’s incomparable care is to embark on a memorable, life-changing experience, in the most positive sense of the term. Together with his superb team of consummate professionals, Dr. Marlin exemplifies timeless attributes of caring, dedication, meticulous attention to detail, craftsmanship, and aesthetic sensibility, leading to results that exceeded my most optimistic expectations. If you are seeking the highest level of quality in a dental restoration project, in a supportive and welcoming environment that puts patient care first and exhibits the highest imaginable standards of technical expertise, Dr. Marlin and his team more than merit your attention. To give you an idea of just how much the care provided by Dr. Marlin and team meant to me, I must admit that when my project came to its completion, and the last crowns were carefully installed, I was in tears – not from pain but from fulfillment and gratitude, tinged with sadness that this life-changing experience had reached closure.

“I could not have picked a better practice! I live in Friendship Heights/Chevy Chase MD area. Dr Marlin and his team gave me back my smile in a couple of weeks! I am so happy with the results! I had serious dental issues and was missing a few teeth including in the front. The use of their sedation to ease pain and stress was crucial for me to go through this journey with peace of mind and I literally felt nothing during my multiple sessions/procedures. Dr Marlin and his team did an amazing job and I can’t thank them enough for their kindness and care during and after my procedures! I would highly recommend this practice! Simply the best!”
Mary
“I am so very grateful for Dr. Marlin and his team. I did some research before choosing him, and this has surely been one of the best choices in my life. This was over three years ago. I have had a lot of work done on my mouth and teeth. I had a bone transplant and implants and bridges. It has been a long journey, but I sincerely enjoyed the whole process. I always enjoyed and looked forward to the days spent in the treatment chair. I never once felt like I was rushed or that I was just a number, on the contrary, I always felt like I was family and the only patient. It was always evident that Dr. Marlin is a genius and I am so fortunate that I was and am in his acre.”

“Over the last year, I have had extensive work done at Dr. Marlin’s office. The final product is better than I ever could have imagined. Dr. Marlin and his whole team (practice management, dental assistants, lab technician, front desk staff, etc.) went gone above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable with the treatment plan, timelines, cost, aesthetics, etc. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Marlin, you wont be disappointed!”
Greg
“I have been coming to Dr. Marlin for 20+ years. Everyone at the practice is great and treats me like family. Dr. Marlin and his team have always been there for my routine items, but when I have had an emergency they have brought me in right away. With the lab in-house I have always received my oral appliances quickly. I appreciate the extra time he takes to make sure I have a proper understanding of how to keep my teeth and gums in great shape. I highly recommend the team and Dr. Marlin.”
Alexandria
“I have been treated by Dr. Marlin for over thirty years. When I first came to his practice I was in danger of losing many teeth . I was severely depressed and Dr. Marlin literally saved my mouth. He was so patient with me and worked so patiently over the years to restore teeth. I have had crowns, bridges and implants. I always knew if there was a solution he would have it and I am so thankful that I found him. The office staff are kind, caring and professional and the office attractive.”

Helena
“Dr. Marlin was able to achieve great results with my implants. I had a fixed bridge which had developed a problem. The bridge was very old and was replaced with implants. Dr. Marlin and his assistant Fatima worked diligently to overcome my special problems. I am very pleased with the results.”
Nicole
“Today, I had dental procedures completed by Dr. Marlin. He spent almost 12 hours repairing damage caused by the previous dentist I choose whose work was not acceptable. Dr Marlin, is detail oriented and a perfectionist, I am lucky to have him repairing the damage.”
Evelyn
“I’ve been seeing Dr. Marlin for at least 5 years and I’ve received nothing but the best care from both him and his team. His attention to detail is exceptional. And, most importantly, I have the utmost confidence in what he advises as treatments. He is simply the best!”
Carol
“Dr. Marlin is a perfectionist in all the procedures he performs but his problem solving skills are even better. I had a difficult situation where I needed a implant, but couldn’t have one, due to side effects from osteoporosis medication. He devised a cantilevered bridge to maximize the tooth area I needed on that side. A wizard!!”
Peter
“I couldn’t recommend Dr. Marlin more highly. I’ve been a patient for more than 30 years. I had a tooth restored by Dr. Marlin with an implant approximately 25 years ago, and it’s worked well throughout the intervening time. He has been proactive in caring for my teeth, and I always know I’m in good hands not only with him but also with his excellent staff.”
