Dental crowns for kids, often referred to as “caps,” are custom-made restorations that cover a tooth’s entire surface, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. They are typically recommended for teeth that are too damaged or decayed to be repaired with fillings, or after a pulpotomy (partial root canal treatment) to protect the remaining tooth structure. Pediatric dental crowns are designed to be both functional and aesthetic, ensuring that children can continue to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. They play a crucial role in pediatric dentistry by preserving primary teeth until they are naturally replaced by permanent teeth.

It usually takes two dental visits to complete a crown. The first appointment involves reshaping the tooth, taking impressions, and placing a temporary crown.
Crowns on permanent adult teeth are meant to be lifelong restorations. However, crowns on primary baby teeth are designed to be temporary.
Yes, once full numbing wears off, a crowned tooth should function just like normal for chewing. However, some care is needed to avoid damaging or dislodging the crown.
Proper brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits are key to maximizing the crown’s longevity. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste.
