Crowns in Pediatric Dentistry

Restorations for primary teeth provide a good treatment to repair or limit damage due to dental caries. Stainless steel crowns (SSCs) have proven to be durable over the years; however newer crowns have been introduced which provide enhanced aesthetics. Open-face SSCs, zirconia crowns, strip crowns, polycarboxylate crowns, acrylic jacket crowns, New Age crowns and recently introduced BioFlx crowns are certain widely used crowns in the field of pediatric dentistry.
