Dental Assistant
Casey
Chair-side support across cleanings, fillings, and cosmetic procedures — and the person quietly making sure the room is set up exactly the way the doctor needs.
The Doctors
Father and son, practicing side by side.
A general dentist and a board-certified periodontist under one roof means most of the care you need happens here, with one team that already knows your history.

University of Maryland School of Dentistry
Cosmetic & General Dentist
Dr. Neal Karlin
Dr. Neal leads the general and cosmetic side of the practice — routine cleanings and exams, fillings and crowns, teeth whitening, veneers, and the kind of careful, patient-paced cosmetic work that gets people comfortable smiling again.
He graduated from the University of Maryland School of Dentistry, and patients regularly describe his chair-side approach the same way: he takes the time to explain what he's seeing, checks in throughout treatment, and never pushes work you don't need.

"Dr. Karlin is one of the best dentists I've seen. He's extremely knowledgeable and actually spends the time to give you great care."
Board-Certified Periodontist
Dr. Daniel Karlin
Dr. Daniel is a board-certified periodontist — the specialist who handles dental implants, gum disease, and the surgical work that gets sent out at most general practices. Having him in-house means full-mouth dental implants, complex extractions, and periodontal therapy can be planned and performed by the same team that handles your routine care.
He served as Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Periodontics at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry from 1997 to 2020, training the next generation of periodontists before joining the family practice full-time.
