Pediatric Dental Crowns

Pediatric Dentist in West Lebanon

Over time teeth begin to weaken. This leaves them more susceptible to problems such as decay, cracks or discoloration. A dental crown can renew the appearance and function of a tooth.

Dental crowns can:

  1. Protect a weak tooth from breaking
  2. Hold a cracked tooth together
  3. Cover and support a damaged or decayed tooth
  4. Cover a severely discolored tooth
  5. Restore a broken or severely worn tooth

Also, dental crowns are often used in conjunction with root canal therapy.

Pediatric crowns are typically made from either stainless steel or zirconia to provide both strength and the zirconia can provide a natural appearance. Once treatment is complete, continue routine brushing and flossing. Keep regular office visits to help your child’s crowns last for many years.
