Stainless Steel Crowns
Durable stainless steel crowns from Dr. Raptis to protect and save badly decayed baby teeth.
A prefabricated stainless steel crown, sometimes called an SSC, that covers and protects a baby tooth that is too decayed or damaged for a filling.
Dr. Raptis gently prepares the tooth, fits a crown sized to match, and cements it in place, often in a single visit.
A stainless steel crown restores full chewing function and protects the tooth until it naturally falls out, preserving space for the permanent tooth underneath.
