PEDIATRIC CROWNS


Crown applications, popularly known as veneers, are an application that covers the entire tooth like a hat, which is preferred in teeth that have a lot of material loss, have decay on more than one surface, have undergone root canal treatment, or are structurally weak.

Can it be applied to milk teeth?

There are ready-made crowns specially produced for milk teeth. These crowns are produced from two different materials: stainless steel (grey) and zirconium (white). Although their functions and application methods are very similar, zirconium crowns are preferred on the front teeth due to aesthetic requirements. After the necessary preparation is made on the tooth, crowns can be applied to both molars and front teeth. Since they are ready-made and have various size options, they can be applied in a short time without the need for any measurement.

Advantages

It lasts much longer than fillings when applied to teeth with a lot of material loss that have undergone procedures such as root canal treatment or amputation. Since it imitates natural teeth, it is more compatible with the contact points of other teeth. It functions during chewing. It is more robust. They are made of tissue-friendly metals. Since they completely surround the tooth, there are no problems such as decay on another surface of the tooth, filling falling out, or breaking.

Since the veneers are adhered to the teeth with a special adhesive, when the time comes for the teeth to fall out, they will fall out with the teeth. There is no need to take any further action.
