Abstract

Early childhood caries (ECC) is a prevalent disease worldwide and the major reason for the destruction and early loss of primary anterior teeth in children. It is paradigmatic to manage and treat this predicament in early childhood, as the affected teeth play a key role in aesthetics, phonetics, eating, and pronunciation. These teeth are influential to proprioceptive inputs of pre-maxilla and maintaining space for the timely eruption of permanent teeth. Aesthetic alternatives to preformed metal crowns have been developed in recent years. This paper describes the clinical considerations, protocol for the implementation, and maintenance for successful rehabilitation of anterior teeth affected by ECC restored with preformed zirconia crowns. Keywords: Aesthetics; Crown; Dental Caries, Primary Teeth, Zirconium
