FAQs
What are pediatric crowns, and when are they needed?
Pediatric crowns are caps placed over damaged or decayed baby teeth to restore their shape, size, and function. They’re often recommended when a filling isn’t enough to protect the tooth or after a root canal treatment.
Are pediatric crowns safe for my child?
Yes. Pediatric crowns are made from materials tested for safety and durability in children’s mouths. Our team ensures proper placement and follow-up care to keep your child comfortable and healthy.
What types of crowns do you use at Align Pediatric Dental Boston?
We typically use stainless steel crowns for durability, but tooth-colored options are available for front teeth or when aesthetics are a priority. We’ll recommend the best choice based on your child’s specific needs.
How long do pediatric crowns last?
With proper care, pediatric crowns can last until the baby tooth naturally falls out to make space for permanent teeth. Regular dental check-ups help ensure the crown stays in good condition.
Is the procedure painful for my child?
We take steps to minimize discomfort, including using gentle numbing techniques and creating a calm environment. Most children tolerate the procedure well, and any soreness afterward is usually mild and short-lived.
