Philadelphia Prosthodontist
When your teeth need more than a routine fix, a prosthodontist brings a level of training that goes well beyond general dentistry. Prosthodontists complete at least three additional years of advanced residency training after dental school, focusing entirely on restoring and replacing teeth. Whether you are dealing with missing teeth, a worn or damaged bite, or seeking a complete smile transformation, a prosthodontist has the training to plan and deliver results with precision.
At Laudenbach Periodontics & Dental Implants, our team includes Dr. Robert Slauch, DDS, MDSc, FACP, a board-certified prosthodontist and Fellow of the American College of Prosthodontists (ACP). What sets Dr. Slauch apart is that he is also surgically trained, a combination that is rare among prosthodontists. Most in his field focus exclusively on the restorative side of treatment. Dr. Slauch’s surgical background gives him a deeper understanding of how bone and tissue interact with the final restoration, which informs every treatment plan he develops.
What Does a Prosthodontist Do?
Prosthodontics is the dental field focused on diagnosing, planning, and restoring teeth that are missing, damaged, or severely worn. While a general dentist may handle routine restorations, a prosthodontist has completed a specialty residency that trains them for more involved cases.
The services Dr. Slauch provides include the following:
- Dental implant restorations: Crowns, bridges, and full prostheses placed over implants to replace missing teeth with natural-looking results
- Full arch restorations: Complete full arch dental implant solutions that replace an entire row of teeth with fixed, permanent teeth
- Single tooth replacement: Lifelike single tooth implant restorations that blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth
- Full mouth rehabilitation: Comprehensive treatment plans that restore the entire mouth, addressing bite, function, and appearance at once
- Crowns and bridges: Fixed restorations that protect damaged teeth and fill gaps left by missing ones
Each of these treatments requires a thorough understanding of bite alignment, materials science, and how restorations function over time. That depth of training is what makes a board-certified prosthodontist uniquely suited for these cases.
Implant Financing Available
Restore your smile with dental implants and flexible financing options that make treatment affordable and accessible.
Why Does Seeing a Prosthodontic Specialist Matter?
There is a meaningful difference between a general dentist who offers restorations and a specialist whose entire training was devoted to them. A prosthodontist understands the full picture, including how your bite works, how bone and gum tissue support your teeth, and which materials will hold up over years of daily use.
The Value of Board Certification
Dr. Slauch holds board certification from the American College of Prosthodontists, the governing body that sets the standard for the field. Earning and maintaining this certification requires passing rigorous written and clinical examinations, demonstrating a level of commitment that goes beyond completing a residency alone.
His designation as a Fellow of the American College of Prosthodontists (FACP) reflects that same dedication. It is a distinction held by prosthodontists who have demonstrated outstanding achievement and ongoing commitment to advancing the specialty.
Interdisciplinary Care at Laudenbach Periodontics
One of the greatest advantages of seeing Dr. Slauch at our practice is that he works alongside Dr. Jay Laudenbach, a board-certified Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology. With over 45 years of combined practice history in Philadelphia, our team brings a depth of experience that benefits every patient. When you need dental implants, the specialist who places them and the prosthodontist who designs your restoration work together throughout your care, not in separate offices with limited communication.
What That Means for You
Interdisciplinary care produces better outcomes because each provider’s recommendations are informed by the other’s input. Dr. Slauch’s surgical training allows him to contribute to the planning phase of implant treatment, not just the restorative phase, so the final result is built with the full picture in mind from the very first appointment.
This level of collaboration is especially valuable for patients pursuing full arch restorations or complete smile makeovers, where precision at every stage matters. Our practice uses cone-beam 3D imaging and digital radiography to support detailed planning, providing both our surgical and restorative providers with the information they need to move forward with confidence.
Your First Step with Dr. Slauch
Our comprehensive $219 consultation includes all necessary X-rays, a full periodontal charting, and a complete series of photos, at no additional charge. It is a full hour dedicated entirely to understanding your mouth and building a treatment plan that fits your situation. You will leave that appointment with a clear picture of your options and what to expect at each step.
New patients are always welcome, and no referral is required. Whether you are missing one tooth or looking for a full smile transformation, Dr. Slauch and the team at Laudenbach are here to help.
