What Are Pediatric Dental Crowns?
What Are Pediatric Dental Crowns?
A pediatric dental crown is a protective covering placed over a tooth that has been weakened by decay, fracture, or extensive treatment. Crowns restore the tooth’s shape and strength while protecting it from further damage. In children, crowns are commonly used on baby teeth to preserve spacing, support proper chewing and speech, and guide healthy development of permanent teeth. Our approach prioritizes comfort, durability, and aesthetics, with Sprig Zirconia Crowns often serving as the preferred option.

Hall Crowns

Hall Crowns
Hall Crowns are a minimally invasive way to treat certain cavities in baby teeth without drilling or numbing injections. Using the Hall Technique, the tooth is carefully cleaned and disinfected, and a pre-formed crown is sealed over the tooth to stop decay from progressing. Hall Crowns are often especially helpful for young children, anxious patients, or situations where preserving comfort is a top priority. Not every child or tooth is a candidate for Hall Crowns, but when appropriate, they offer a gentle, efficient option that many children tolerate very well.

Are Sprig Zirconia Crowns safe for children?
Yes. Sprig Zirconia Crowns are biocompatible, durable, and designed specifically for pediatric patients. They are widely used in pediatric dentistry and are considered a safe and effective option for restoring baby teeth.
How long do Sprig Zirconia Crowns last on baby teeth?
Sprig Zirconia Crowns are designed to last for the life of the baby tooth. They are extremely durable and resistant to wear, which makes them an excellent option for active children. With good oral hygiene and regular checkups, these crowns typically remain secure until the tooth naturally falls out.
Why would my child need a crown instead of a filling?
A crown is recommended when a tooth has extensive decay, fracture, or weakness that a filling alone cannot adequately support. Crowns provide full coverage and long-term protection, which helps prevent repeat treatment and discomfort. In many cases, placing a crown early is the most conservative and reliable way to protect the tooth.
