For the convenience of Nashville families, we've opened a second dedicated location under the name Tiny Ties. While our main dental practice continues to serve patients in Fairview, this specialized facility focuses exclusively on tongue tie procedures for children in the Nashville area. By establishing this separate center, we're bringing our expert care closer to you, eliminating long drives and making treatment more accessible for parents throughout Nashville and surrounding communities.
What are Pediatric Dental Crowns
A pediatric dental crown is a protective cover placed over a child’s tooth when the tooth is too weak or damaged for a regular filling. It helps restore the tooth’s shape, strength, and function so your child can chew comfortably and keep the tooth protected from further damage.
For children, dental crowns are often used on baby teeth with larger cavities, broken areas, or teeth that need extra support after treatment. At Song Bird Smiles, pediatric crowns are carefully selected to protect your child’s smile, support normal tooth development, and help avoid early tooth loss.
Did you know…
The first dental crowns were made from porcelain in the early 19th century.

Strong Tooth Protection
Pediatric dental crowns help protect teeth that are too weak or damaged for a simple filling. They cover the tooth, add strength, and help your child chew comfortably again.
Natural-Looking Smile Support
Crowns can help restore the shape and function of your child’s tooth while keeping their smile looking healthy. This is especially helpful for front teeth or visible areas.
Long-Term Baby Tooth Care
Baby teeth need to stay healthy until they fall out naturally. Dental crowns can help save damaged baby teeth, support proper chewing, and hold space for adult teeth.
The Benefits of Pediatric Dental Crowns
Protects Weak Baby Teeth
A crown covers and strengthens a damaged tooth so it can stay in place until it naturally falls out.
Restores Chewing Comfort
Crowns help children bite and chew more comfortably after a tooth has been affected by decay or injury.
Prevents Further Damage
A dental crown helps seal the tooth and reduce the risk of the cavity spreading or the tooth breaking.
The Pediatric Dental Crown Treatment Process
Tooth Exam and X-rays
Your child’s dentist will first examine the tooth and may take X-rays to check the size of the cavity, tooth structure, and whether the tooth can be safely restored with a crown.
Crown Placement
A child-sized dental crown is placed over the tooth to protect and strengthen it. The dentist checks the fit to make sure your child can bite and chew comfortably.
Final Check and Home Care
Before your child leaves, the bite is checked again, and parents receive simple care tips for brushing, eating, and keeping the crown healthy.
Before & Afters
A smile is worth 1,000 words.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why would my child need a dental crown?
%402x%20(2).svg){kind=icon}
A child may need a dental crown if a baby tooth has a large cavity, is weak, broken, or cannot be protected with a simple filling. The crown helps cover and strengthen the tooth.
Are pediatric dental crowns safe for kids?
Yes, pediatric dental crowns are commonly used to protect children’s teeth. Your dentist will recommend one only when it is needed to restore comfort, chewing, and tooth function.
Will the crown fall out with the baby tooth?
Yes. If the crown is placed on a baby tooth, it usually falls out naturally when the baby tooth is ready to come out.
Does getting a dental crown hurt?
The dentist keeps your child comfortable during treatment. Some children may feel mild soreness afterward, but this usually improves quickly.
How do I care for my child’s dental crown?
Help your child brush and floss daily, avoid very sticky foods, and keep regular dental visits. Good home care helps the crown stay strong until the tooth falls out naturally.
