Restorative dentistry
for Children

Our ultimate goal at Children’s Dentistry of Coral Springs is to help your child grow up with a healthy, beautiful smile. However, we understand that dental issues can arise, whether from childhood activities or a sweet tooth. Fortunately, restorative dentistry can help maintain their perfect smile.

White Fillings 

White (composite) fillings are used to fill cavities, repair broken teeth, and preserve tooth health. They blend seamlessly with natural teeth.

Process:

1. Numb the area with local anesthetic.

2. Remove decay and clean the area.

3. Apply and shape filling material.

4. Harden with a special light.

5. Polish for a natural look.

Stainless-Steel Crowns (Silver Caps) 

For severe tooth damage, stainless-steel crowns can protect and restore function.

Process:

1. Numb the area.

2. Remove decay; perform root canal if needed.

3. Reshape the tooth for the crown.

4. Take an impression and place a temporary crown.

5. Fit and secure the permanent crown.

Stainless-steel crowns are great for primary teeth. For permanent teeth, white crowns are recommended.

Pediatric White Crowns 

For a natural look, white crowns are available for both primary and permanent teeth. They provide strength, function, and a blendable appearance.
