What are Zirconia Dental Crowns?

Zirconia-type crowns offer durability and long-lasting beauty to your child's smile. These crowns can be placed over primary (baby) teeth as well as permanent teeth. They are often necessary if a tooth has become severely damaged or compromised. The process to place the zirconia crown is simple, easy and comfortable for your child.

Before & After

Why would Zirconia Crowns be necessary?

There are a few different reasons for why your child may need a zirconia crown. First, the tooth might have broken, fractured or cracked enough to warrant a full dental crown. If the tooth is severely decayed or has a large filling in it, we might advise to you that the entire tooth be crowned. Crowns are ideal for any tooth within the mouth that needs support and to be restored to its normal shape and size.

What makes your child a great candidate for Zirconia Dental Crowns?

To decipher if your child needs a new crown, we will need to perform a full examination. This helps us to decipher if a crown is the best option for the damaged or compromised tooth. If your child needs a crown, it is important to have the brand new restoration put into place before further damage occurs. Your child's new zirconia crown will last for many years before it'll need to be replaced with a new restoration.

What happens during the Zirconia Crown procedure?

The zirconia crown procedure involves administering a local anesthetic to numb the area. The tooth is then filed down to make space for the full crown. We will use a pre-made zirconia dental crown on top of the baby tooth. If it's a permanent tooth needing restoration, we will take detailed molds in order for a customized crown to be fabricated. The process helps to improve the look of your child's smile while improving the overall functionality that they experience each day. With proper care and maintenance, the zirconia crown will provide your child with years a full, beautiful-looking smile.
