Restorative Care for Kids
Stainless Steel Crowns in Aurora, CO
Strong, reliable crowns that protect your child's primary teeth until permanent teeth are ready to come in.
What stainless steel crowns are, and who they're for
Stainless steel crowns are prefabricated caps placed over primary (baby) teeth that have been significantly damaged by decay or trauma. They're one of the most durable restorative options for children and are commonly used on molars, where chewing forces are greatest and decay is most common.
The procedure: quick, gentle, and done in one visit
After numbing the area, we remove the damaged portion of the tooth, size the crown, and cement it in place. Most children return to normal activities the same day, and our team keeps the whole visit calm and positive for your child.
Protects primary teeth
Covers decayed or injured baby teeth, restoring strength and preventing premature loss that can affect permanent teeth.
Built for active chewing
Durable enough to hold up to the biting forces of children, especially on back molars where decay is most common.
Quick, gentle placement
Most crowns are placed in a single appointment with minimal chair time, so kids get back to normal activities the same day.
Why protecting baby teeth matters long term
Primary teeth hold space for permanent teeth, so keeping them healthy until they naturally fall out matters for your child's long-term oral development. A stainless steel crown restores function, prevents further decay, and helps your child avoid premature tooth loss.
