Due to diet, oral hygiene and active lifestyle, children’s teeth are at great risk for developing dental caries (cavities). Though baby teeth are temporary, they play a vital role in your child’s smile and should receive proper care and attention. In the case that a child’s baby teeth become severely decayed, fillings may not suffice to be an effective treatment and their dentist may recommend a dental crown. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends dental crowns as the treatment of choice for children with extensive tooth decay or children who have received a pulpotomy (a root canal procedure for children).
Keep in mind stainless-steel crown provides many benefits as well, including:
· Durability
· Quick placement time
· Complete protection for the affected tooth
· Reduced likelihood of retreatment
· Greater success than fillings in children younger than age 4
· Easier to provide for children who need general anesthesia in order to receive treatment
