Children’s teeth are at great risk for developing cavities. As your child’s teeth play an incredibly important role in their oral health and development, it is vital that they receive proper care. Baby teeth that have sustained significant damage are unlikely to be restored using a filling, and our pediatric dentist may instead recommend a dental crown. Our office provides tooth-colored dental crowns that can restore your child’s teeth while also giving them back a beautiful and natural-looking smile.

Dental crowns have many benefits, including:

• Durability
• Complete protection for the tooth
• Little to no tooth sensitivity after treatment
• Reduced likelihood that further treatment will be needed
• Greater success in restoring a tooth than fillings in young children
• Effective space maintenance for the permanent teeth

It may take two appointments to complete your child’s treatment and provide them with a crown. During the first appointment, we will prepare them to receive the crown, including taking impressions. During the second appointment, our pediatric dentist will place the final crown. Throughout your child’s entire experience, we will make every effort to ensure that they feel comfortable and at ease.
