What Are Stainless Steel Crowns for Primary/Non-developed teeth in Kids?
In pediatric dentistry, a root canal is also called pulpotomy or pulpectomy depending on the age of the tooth. It is used to treat teeth that are severely infected or decayed. Untreated damage to the inner pulp, which contains blood vessels and nerves, can lead to severe pain. The infected tooth pulp is removed, the inside of the teeth are cleaned, and the tooth is sealed to prevent infection.
When Are Stainless Steel Crowns Recommended?
Dr. Seifi and her team may recommend stainless steel crowns for children experiencing the following conditions:
- Severe Tooth Decay: When a cavity is too large to be repaired with a filling, a stainless steel crown can provide the necessary protection and restore function.
- Broken or Cracked Teeth: For teeth that have been fractured or damaged due to injury or accidents, these crowns offer strong reinforcement.
- Pulpotomy: After a "baby root canal" procedure, a stainless steel crown can be placed to safeguard the remaining tooth structure and prevent further damage.
- Back Teeth Restoration: For molars that require restoration due to decay or trauma, stainless steel crowns offer a durable solution that maintains chewing function.
Stainless steel crowns are a practical and long-lasting option for children, providing the strength and protection needed to maintain oral health during their developmental years.
What to Expect During the Procedure?
Same-day stainless steel crowns are a quick and efficient way to restore damaged teeth, especially for children. Here's a brief overview of the process:
- Examination: The dentist evaluates the tooth and may take X-rays to determine if a crown is needed.
- Tooth Preparation: The tooth is cleaned of decay and slightly reshaped to fit the crown.
- Crown Selection: The dentist selects a pre-fabricated stainless steel crown that fits the tooth in terms of size and bite.
- Cementation: The crown is cemented onto the tooth, securely bonding it in place.
- Final Adjustments: Any necessary adjustments are made to ensure a comfortable bite.
This entire process can typically be completed in about an hour, allowing for a fully restored tooth the same day.
