3M Stainless Steel Permanent Molar Refill Preformed Paediatric Crowns - 6 - UL 2

These crowns are constructed from high-quality stainless steel, which provides durability, corrosion resistance, and strength necessary to withstand masticatory forces in the oral cavity. Stainless steel is the preferred material for pediatric molar restorations because it ensures longevity and reliability for primary molar applications.

The crowns come in a preformed design tailored specifically for permanent molars with appropriate height, contour, and occlusal surface, which streamlines the restoration process and minimizes chairside adjustments. This design ensures a precise fit, allowing clinicians to complete the procedure efficiently while reducing treatment time for pediatric patients.

The crowns feature an aesthetic and anatomical shape that promotes a natural appearance and blends seamlessly with surrounding dentition. This design consideration enhances patient satisfaction and confidence in the restored tooth while maintaining proper occlusal function.

These preformed stainless steel crowns are indicated for repairing and preserving remaining tooth tissue in severely damaged and decayed permanent molars in pediatric patients. They provide a reliable restorative solution for primary molar applications where significant tooth structure loss has occurred.

The crowns can be trimmed using crown and bridge scissors if too long, contoured using contouring pliers for better fit, and crimped using crimping pliers to tighten the edges for a secure fit around the tooth. These adjustments allow clinicians to customize the crown for optimal marginal adaptation and occlusal fit.

A suitable dental cement should be selected for permanent placement and applied to the inside of the crown before seating. The choice of cement depends on clinical requirements, and excess cement should be removed from around the crown margins after seating to ensure proper marginal integrity.
