Crowns for Baby Teeth

When children come to a pediatric dentist for a filling, they may be nervous about sitting in the chair for an extended period of time while the doctor works on their teeth. Fillings can be a good choice for decay in baby teeth, but if the cavity is between two teeth or located in the molars, the filling may not last for the duration of the tooth. Most baby teeth fall out by the time a child is 12 or 13, and that’s what makes dental crowns a more viable option for tooth repair.

These teeth will of course fall out and be replaced by the child’s adult (permanent) teeth, which come in at a count of 32. Parents may not worry as much about the baby teeth because they know they won’t be there forever, but that doesn’t mean that decay can’t be a problem. Dentists across the country treat...

Offering Dental Crowns as an Option

As a dentist, you want to offer your patients the very best oral health options. You provide fillings for cavities, bridges for restorative work, and dentures for those who have lost multiple teeth, but what do you offer in terms of dental crowns?
