Kids Stainless Steel Crowns
Durable Protection for Kids’ Teeth
What This Service Is
When a child’s tooth is damaged or decayed, a stainless steel crown protects it and keeps it strong. These crowns are safe, long-lasting, and help maintain a healthy smile until permanent teeth come in.
At Smile Avenue Dental Group, we provide Kids' Stainless Steel Crowns backed by over 20 years of clinical dental experience. Our team focuses on safety, comfort, and long-term results, using modern technology and personalized treatment planning to help patients restore their smiles with confidence.
Stainless Steel Crowns
A stainless steel crown is a pre-formed metal cap used to cover and protect a baby tooth that has significant decay, damage, or after procedures like a pulpotomy. Stainless steel crowns are durable, safe, and prevent further decay or tooth loss. They preserve the tooth’s function for chewing, maintain space for permanent teeth, and prevent bite problems. Stainless steel crowns are commonly used in pediatric dentistry because they are quick to place, reliable, and require minimal tooth removal.
