Pediatric Crowns

Our team at Central Park Pediatric Dentistry is here to provide durable and effective solutions to protect your child’s developing smile. Pediatric crowns are specifically designed to restore both the function and appearance of a child’s damaged or decayed baby teeth. We use these crowns when a tooth is too small or too compromised for a traditional filling. Their main goal is to protect the tooth, ensure it functions properly, and maintain the necessary space for a permanent tooth to emerge correctly in order to support your child’s healthy smile development.

We understand that this process can be daunting for your little ones, which is why our office is focused on the comfortability of your child during this treatment. This process will typically only take one visit to our office after your initial consultation. Here’s what you and your child can expect:

The entire procedure is performed with gentle, child-friendly techniques, ensuring a positive experience for both you and your child.

Aftercare of pediatric crowns is essential for the longevity and effectiveness of the treatment. After the crowns are placed, your child should avoid eating until the anesthesia has fully worn off to prevent any potential injuries. It is important to maintain good oral hygiene practices, including regular brushing and flossing to keep the area around the crown clean and free from plaque. Regular dental check-ups are also crucial to monitor the crown’s fit and function, as well as to address any concerns that may arise. If your child experiences any pain or the crown feels loose, contact Central Park Pediatric Dentistry promptly to schedule an appointment!
