What Are Kinder Krowns®?
If your child suffers from extensive cavities where the cavity has reached deep into the tooth, then a dental filling will not be enough to protect the tooth. This is when a dental crown becomes necessary. In the past, the stainless steel or silver crown has been the most popular option. But these silver-colored crowns are highly visible, which can cause a child to be very self-conscious of their smile when they are placed on the anterior (front) teeth. To help keep children smiling confidently, our pediatric dentists in the Woodlands offer Kinder Krowns®, which are tooth-colored, for the visible front teeth, and stainless steel crowns for the less visible posterior (back) teeth.
THE PEDIATRIC DENTIST IS SO SO PATIENT WITH HIM AND FIXED HIM UP UNDER SEDATION AND WITHOUT ANY SILVER CROWNS. I USED TO WORK NEXT DOOR AND OUR CUSTOMERS RAVED ABOUT THEM.
Three Primary Reasons to Use Kinder Krowns® for Baby Teeth Cavities:
1. Self-Esteem: Your child is still in the developmental phase concerning every part of their life, so ensuring they have a great self-esteem is extremely important. Your child should never feel self-conscious about their appearance. Kinder Krowns® for the front teeth combined with stainless steel crowns for the back teeth work in harmony to provide your child with a beautiful, healthy, and natural-looking smile.
2. A Good Start: A child’s baby teeth do not fall out all at once. Adult teeth grow in over the course of several years. The front teeth are the first to go when a child is about 6 or 7 years old, while the baby molars typically remain until the child reaches approximately 12 years old. Keeping your child’s teeth healthy and functional will keep them on the right path for when their adult teeth come in. Kinder Krowns® help stave off cavities and infections so your child can enjoy smiling and eating normally.
3. Durable Material: Baby teeth help guide permanent teeth and retain space to reduce the need for braces and prevent speech problems. At Signature Smiles, we prefer Kinder Krowns® for the front teeth because of their natural appearance and comfortable fit. They are also 100% biocompatible and metal free. Kinder Krowns® are made of Zirconia, which is an extremely durable substance that has been used in the medical field for over 40 years.
