Pediatric Dental CrownsIn Powell, TN
No parent wants their kid to deal with toothaches or damaged teeth. Pediatric dental crowns are specially made for tiny teeth to restore those that have been too damaged by decay or injury to be repaired with a simple filling. Keep your child’s smile healthy as they grow and develop.
Why should my child get a pediatric dental crown?
Dental crowns are the best way to repair your child’s cracked, broken, decayed, or infected tooth. During the crown process, your child’s pediatric dentist will remove all the damaged material from their tooth. Then, they’ll fit your child for a strong, durable, and long-lasting crown that will cover your child’s tooth and protect it. With a crown, you can prevent further damage, relieve discomfort, and get peace of mind. You’ll know that your child’s tooth will stay healthy for years to come.
Complimentary Meet & Greets
Going to the dentist can be a scary prospect for children (and even some adults!), but it doesn’t have to be. If your child is anxious about visiting the dentist, schedule a meet & greet so they can meet the team and become familiar with the office. Once they’ve gotten to know us, they’ll see there’s nothing to be afraid of after all!

White Zirconia Crowns
A ceramic alternative to traditional stainless steel crowns, zirconia crowns look and feel more natural, and can be color-matched to the rest of your child’s grin. They’re a great option for restoring your little one’s front teeth, so they can smile with confidence.
The Benefits of Pediatric Dental Crowns
Cost-Effective
Dental crowns are the most affordable way to repair damaged teeth and protect them for years to come. Stainless steel crowns are particularly inexpensive, making them a great choice for restoring baby teeth and protecting them until they fall out naturally.
Prevent Complications
If your pediatric dentist recommends a crown for your child and they don’t get treatment, they could be at risk of further problems like tooth infections. These complications could cause pain and discomfort, worsen their oral health, and lead to additional costly treatments like root canal therapy. With a crown, you can protect their tooth and avoid these complications entirely.
Minimally-Invasive
Dental crowns only involve removing material from the outside of the tooth, so they're minimally-invasive. Your pediatric dentist will numb your child’s mouth and can also explore sedation options to keep them comfortable during treatment. You can trust us to deliver the expert, child-friendly care your little one needs.
Board-Eligible Pediatric Dentist
Rest assured that your child is receiving top-notch, specialized care with Dr. Tanner Gamble, our Board-Eligible Pediatric Dentist. To be recognized by The American Board of Pediatric Dentistry, doctors must undergo extensive training in the pediatric field in addition to their standard dental degrees.
Stainless Steel Crowns
Extremely durable and affordable, stainless steel crowns are excellent for restoring rear baby teeth, as they’re able to hold up to the wear and tear of chewing. Because of their silver color, they are ideal for rear teeth that don’t show when your little one smiles, as well as for baby teeth that are destined to be replaced with permanent ones.
The Pediatric Dental Crown Treatment Process
Tooth Numbing & Preparation
To begin the process, your child’s dentist will numb their mouth. Then, they will use a drill to remove all of the damaged or decayed enamel from their tooth. They will shape the tooth into a strong, stable platform. This ensures the dental crown can attach tightly to the remaining tooth.
Dental Crown Fitting & Placement
Both zirconia and stainless steel pediatric crowns are pre-fabricated in a variety of sizes and shapes, allowing for seamless, same-day delivery. After your child’s tooth has been prepared, their dentist will choose the appropriate crown. Then, they'll check the fit and cement it in place, restoring your child's smile.
