During a restorative dentistry visit, the first step involves a thorough evaluation of your child’s teeth, which may include taking necessary X-rays to assess any dental issues. The goal is to restore both the strength and appearance of decayed teeth. This is achieved by carefully removing the compromised areas and filling them with tooth-colored composite resin for a natural look. If a tooth is severely damaged, a crown may be suggested to provide additional support. These crowns, made from durable materials such as stainless steel or zirconia, are custom-fitted to ensure they fit securely and comfortably.
Throughout the procedure, the dental team prioritizes your child’s comfort by employing a gentle approach and maintaining clear communication. Preparing for the appointment is also essential; discussing the visit in simple, positive terms can help alleviate any anxiety your child may have. After the procedure, it’s important to follow any aftercare instructions provided by the dentist, such as avoiding certain foods and maintaining good oral hygiene practices like regular brushing and flossing. Scheduling follow-up appointments will also ensure that the restored tooth and your child’s overall oral health are monitored properly.
At Foothill Smiles, we are dedicated to providing child care tailored to the needs of each child. From minimally invasive fillings to durable crowns, our restorative treatments focus on preserving a child’s natural teeth while ensuring their comfort and confidence. Our team is friendly and approachable, and we utilize modern technology and communication techniques to create an enjoyable dental experience for both children and parents.
A crown is typically recommended when a tooth has extensive decay, structural damage, or if a filling would not provide sufficient support. Crowns are also used to protect teeth at high risk for cavities.
