Your child's dental health is a top priority. That's why we offer stainless steel crowns, a durable and cost-effective solution for restoring children's teeth.

They are often used to cap primary teeth that have been damaged by decay or trauma, ensuring that your child can chew comfortably and maintain proper oral development. Stainless steel crowns are a popular choice among pediatric dentists because they are strong, reliable, and can be placed quickly, minimizing the time your child spends in the dental chair.

Why Should I Get Stainless Steel Crowns?

Stainless steel crowns are an excellent choice for restoring your child's teeth due to their durability and affordability. They provide full coverage for the tooth, protecting it from further decay and maintaining its function until the permanent tooth erupts. This is particularly important for primary teeth, as they play a crucial role in guiding the proper alignment of permanent teeth. Moreover, stainless steel crowns are pre-fabricated and can be adjusted to fit your child's tooth perfectly, making the process quick and less stressful for young patients. Choosing stainless steel crowns at Lyric Pediatric Dentistry ensures that your child's dental health is in expert hands, with a solution that is both effective and child-friendly.

The Stainless Steel Crowns Treatment Process

Assessment and Preparation

The first step in the stainless steel crown treatment process is a thorough examination of your child's teeth. Dr. Lyric Hildebrandt will assess the extent of the decay or damage to determine if a crown is the best option. Once confirmed, the tooth is prepared by removing any decay and shaping it to fit the crown snugly. This preparation is crucial to ensure the crown sits comfortably and securely on the tooth.

Crown Selection and Fitting

Next, a pre-fabricated stainless steel crown is selected. These crowns come in various sizes, allowing Dr. Hildebrandt to choose one that fits your child's tooth perfectly. The crown is then carefully adjusted and fitted over the prepared tooth. This step involves checking the fit and making necessary adjustments to ensure that the crown does not interfere with your child’s bite and feels natural in their mouth.

Cementation

Once the crown is properly fitted, it is cemented in place using a strong dental adhesive. This ensures that the crown remains securely attached to the tooth, providing long-term protection. The final step involves checking the bite one last time and making any minor adjustments needed for comfort. Your child can then leave the office with a restored tooth that looks and functions just like a natural one.
