RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY
Gentle Repairs to Restore Confidence
Our dentists at SmileTown: Just Kids Dentistry are not surprised when children arrive with cavities or damaged teeth. The active lifestyles these little ones lead can make them prone to chips and cracks, and depending on their oral hygiene routine at home, dental decay may be a likely occurrence. Fortunately, we can help by providing gentle repairs in the form of tooth-colored fillings and customized dental crowns. Call us if your child’s smile needs proper restorative care.

Dental Crowns
When extensive dental decay or damage causes a tooth to no longer be able to protect itself, a dental crown must be used to ensure its health and longevity. Our team uses zirconia and stainless steel materials to protect affected teeth and will determine which type is right for your child’s smile. Typically, we will use stainless steel on back teeth because of the durability they provide when eating. Zirconia crowns are more commonly used on teeth located toward the front of the mouth to create a more seamless and uniform appearance.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
If your child suffers a cavity, it’s important that proper treatment be administered as soon as possible to prevent decay from spreading. With a tooth-colored filling, we can avoid the use of dark amalgam and continue to provide the same level of durability and protection. After cleaning out the tooth, we will apply a color-matched composite resin to fill the space and create a cohesive look that successfully blends in with the rest of your child’s smile.
