Toothache:
Untreated or untimely treated tooth decay can cause your child severe pain and discomfort, a greater risk of decay in other baby and adult teeth, more expensive and complicated treatments, and loss of time at school. Tooth decay can also compromise your child’s self-esteem and social development. Untreated tooth decay can also create anxiety in your child when he or she visits the dentist as a result of associating dental visits with pain. This anxiety can have such a lasting effect that it causes your child to avoid the dentist even after reaching adult years. You can avoid these issues with early visits to your child’s dentist.
When and Why Your Child May Need a Dental Crown
About 40 percent of 2- to 5-year-olds have cavities. It is important to treat cavities in baby teeth because these teeth serve as space holders for the child’s permanent teeth. If your child loses a tooth too early from cavities, it can cause alignment issues that will need to be addressed with braces.
When a baby molar has a large cavity or fracture, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends restoring the tooth with stainless-steel or Zirconia crowns. Dental crowns are necessary in cases where there isn’t enough healthy tooth left to hold a filling after the decayed area is removed. If a filling is placed on such a tooth the result is usually more trips to the dentists, more pain, possible infection leading to early extraction of the tooth, more time, and more money.

Child Happy
Zirconia Premium Primary Molar Crowns are dental crowns for children that are patient and patient pleasing more wear resistant.
One benefit is that a crown is a one-time procedure for the tooth. JMG crowns work well even with limited tooth structure remaining. Another huge benefit is, once placed on the tooth, the tooth becomes nearly self-maintained even in environments of poor dental hygiene, sugar, and plaque. This is because the entire tooth is covered leaving sugar and plaque without a way to attack the tooth. Once the baby tooth is ready to fall out naturally, the crown will fall out naturally with the baby tooth so as a busy mom you don’t have to worry about the tooth or crown once the crown is placed.

Happy Child Brushing Teeth
Because crowns are more wear-resistant than older dental crowns available, and are far more cost-effective for your dentist, you save valuable time out of your busy schedule while your dentist can better serve you, your child, and your community. You also save money by avoiding costly repeat procedures. Not only do you and your child benefit from your dentists placing Zirconia premium dental crowns, your dentist will benefit also.
