Discover the Benefits of White Crowns and Fillings for Children
At North Hills Pediatric Dentistry, we understand the importance of a healthy, confident smile for your child. Our white crowns and fillings are designed to repair and enhance teeth with materials that mimic the natural color of your child's teeth, ensuring a seamless, natural appearance.
Why White Crowns and Fillings are Ideal for Children
Aesthetic and Functional
White crowns and fillings not only restore the function of your child’s teeth but also maintain a natural, beautiful look. They are perfect for teeth that are visible when your child smiles, talks, and laughs, helping to boost their confidence.
Safe and Durable
Crafted from child-friendly materials like composite resin and porcelain, these treatments are safe and designed to withstand the rigors of your child's daily activities, from speaking to eating.
Longevity of White Crowns and Fillings in Pediatric Dentistry
With proper care, including good oral hygiene habits and regular dental check-ups, white fillings can last from 5 to 10 years, and crowns can last even longer. Dr. Corbin Smith ensures that each restoration is tailored to suit the needs of growing children, making them a lasting investment in your child’s oral health.
Choosing Between a Crown and a Filling for Your Child
- Fillings: Best suited for small areas of decay, fillings are minimally invasive and preserve most of the natural tooth structure.
- Crowns: Used when a tooth has extensive decay or has undergone a root canal, crowns cover the entire tooth, providing superior strength and protection.
Is Your Child a Candidate for White Crowns and Fillings?
Dr. Corbin Smith will conduct a thorough examination to determine if white crowns or fillings are the best solution for your child. Ideal candidates are those with decayed, damaged, or previously filled teeth needing enhanced structural support and aesthetic improvement.
What to Expect During the Procedure at North Hills Pediatric Dentistry
The comfort of your child is our top priority. Dr. Smith uses gentle techniques to remove decay and places the crown or filling with minimal discomfort. Each step is explained in child-friendly language to ensure your child feels safe and informed.
