The Modern Standard of Care
A Flawless Fit Through Digital Precision
For decades, traditional dentures have been notorious for slipping, causing painful sore spots, and requiring messy, uncomfortable impression materials. At Rittenhouse Smiles, we have completely modernized the process by transitioning to advanced CAD/CAM digital prosthetics.
By utilizing high-resolution digital scanning and precision milling technology, Dr. Cronin designs custom dentures that integrate perfectly with the unique topography of your jaw. The result is a highly aesthetic, incredibly secure restoration that allows you to eat, speak, and laugh with absolute confidence. However, we are aware that some people would prefer conventional Dentures, which we also continue to do on select cases.
Why Go Digital?
The Digital Advantage
Digital technology has revolutionized full-arch restorations. We utilize state-of-the-art dental software and biocompatible acrylics to craft prosthetics that dramatically outperform traditional dentures in fit, strength, and beauty.
Microscopic Precision
Traditional wax shrinks and warps during fabrication. Digital dentures are precision-milled from solid blocks of highly durable, biocompatible resin, ensuring a perfect, suction-like fit without the distortion of older methods.
Permanent Digital Records
Because your prosthetics are designed in a 3D digital environment, your files are securely backed up. In some cases, we can replicate a denture immediately for replacement if ever lost or damaged.
Uncompromising Aesthetics
Our digital design process allows for total control over the shade, shape, and arrangement of your new teeth, ensuring a result that looks vibrant, natural, and specifically tailored to your facial structure.
The Rittenhouse Protocol
A Seamless Clinical Workflow
Our transition to a digital prosthodontic workflow means a faster turnaround time, fewer appointments, and a significantly more comfortable patient experience.
- No More Gooey Impressions: We utilize an advanced digital intraoral scanner to capture thousands of hyper-accurate images of your gums and arches in just minutes.
- Virtual Smile Design: Using specialized software, Dr. Cronin designs your bite and smile virtually, ensuring perfect occlusal harmony before fabrication even begins.
- Precision Milling: Your approved design is sent to an elite milling center where your denture is carved from a highly compressed, non-porous resin puck for maximum strength and hygiene.
- Final Delivery: Your new denture is delivered. Because it was milled digitally from an exact 3D map of your mouth, the fit is incredibly precise, requiring fewer follow-up adjustments.
