How to use stainless steel crowns Tailored for Dentists, Hygienists and Dental & Oral Health Therapists
Full Day Workshop
BRIEF Management of the pulpally involved or severely broken down primary tooth and adequate restoration poses considerable challenges for clinicians involved in the care of the young patient. The use of prefabricated crowns provides the optimal and most successful form of restoration from compromised teeth, whether resulting from caries and pulpal breakdown, or relating to developmental defects of tooth structure. Stainless steel crowns are an excellent restorative treatment option in the primary dentition as a means of maintaining the space for the permanent successor. The placement of stainless steel crowns in primary teeth minimises retreatment by providing restorations of high quality that will function until the natural exfoliation of the tooth.
