Stainless Steel Crowns
STAINLESS STEEL CROWNS
First used in the late 1940s and became commonly used in the 1960s
Gained popularity and acceptance along with the idea of “pediatric dentistry”
Pediatric Dental Literature
The Use of Stainless Steel Crowns
Seale, NS; Pediatric Dent. 2002 Sept-Oct;24 (5):501-5
Advantages of Stainless Steel Crowns
Can be used for badly broken down crowns
Can be placed with poor isolation Fast Economical Full coverage-prevents recurrent
decay Durable
Success of SSC Vs. Amalgam in Primary Molars Combined raw data from 4 separate
studies show the failure rate for multisurface amalgams is 26% vs. 7% for SSCs after 5 years.
The success rate of SSCs vs. multi-surface amalgams goes up dramatically for restorations place in children under the age of 4 years.

Longevity of Occlusally-Stressed Restorations in Posterior Primary Teeth

Hickel Article
Reviewed Literature 1971-July 2003
Clinical performance of restorative materials in primary teeth.
Observed for a minimum of 2 years
Hickel Findings (failure rates)
14% Stainless Steel Crowns 35.5% Amalgam 25.8% Glass Ionomer 29.1% ART (Atraumatic Rest. Tx)
*SSC failures usually failure of overall tx i.e. tooth required extraction.
Attitudes of General Dentists
General Dental Practitioners’ Views On the Use of Stainless Steel Crowns to Restore Primary Molars
Threlfall AG et al: Br Dent J 2005 Oct 8; 199(7):453-5.
Threlfall Study
General DDS treatment planned clinical care for primary dentitions
Case was of a child that should have stainless steel crowns according to the guidelines of the British Society of Paediatric Dentistry.
Threlfall Study N=93 71% of the general dentists knew
the BSPD guidelines for placement of SSCs.
Only 7% of general dentists said they would place a SSC in this case
Only 18% had ever used an SSC in their practice.
Reasons Given for Not Placing Stainless Steel Crowns

Disadvantage of SSC

Stainless Steel Crowns are Fast!!!
Most pediatric dentists can place one in 10 minutes or
less-you can too!
Stainless Steel Crowns are just as easy to manipulate as a matrix band!
Stainless Steel Crowns are Economical
You decide the fee Best chance of one appointment
treatment.
What About Metal Allergy? SSCs contain nickel and chromium. It is
the nickel which may elicit an allergic response in some patients. Although more prevalent in females, intraoral allergic responses seem to be more minimal than extraoral responses and also ‘scarce.’
Janson et al. Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop. 1998
What About Gingival Health?
“Plaque accumulation and frequency of gingival problems associated with SSCs in primary teeth seem to be unexceptional”
Some increased inflammation is seen in permanent dentitions after puberty.
Fayle. Int J Paediatr Dent. 1999
Stainless Steel Crowns (SSC)
Indications: Primary Teeth
After pulpal therapy
SSC Indications
Following Pulp Therapy
Indications: Primary Teeth
After pulpal therapy Multi-surface carious lesions
SSC Indications
Large, Deep Caries Caries on 3 or more surfaces
Indications: Primary Teeth
After pulpal therapy Multi-surface carious lesions Proximal box extended beyond

caries patients Teeth with extensive attrition Behavioral Challenges
Indications: Permanent Teeth
Interim restoration until a more permanent restoration can be done
Financial barriers prevent gold or PFM crown
Extensive developmental defects. Restore occlusion and reduce sensitivity due to enamel and dentin dysplasia.
Large, Deep Caries Enamel Hypoplasia
1st Permanent Molars
SSC Indications
AAPD (Amer Assoc Pediatric Dentists)Consensus on Use of SSCs
Children at high risk exhibiting anterior tooth decay and/or molar caries may be treated with SSCs to protect remaining at-risk surfaces.
Extensive decay, large lesions or multiple surface lesions in primary molars should be treated with SSCs.
Strong consideration for use of SSCs in children who require GA
Problems with “White” SSCs
White facing prone to fracture and loss
Tooth must be reduced significantly more than conventional SSC prep- therefore, pulp exposure more likely
Cannot crimp or trim as much as conventional SSC
Stainless Steel Crown Technique
Anatomical Differences
Primary vs. Permanent
A. Enamel ThicknessB. Dentin ThicknessC. Pulpal SizeD. Gingival Bulge
View of Buccal Cervical Bulge: This is what retains an SSC
BUCCAL CERVICAL “SWEETSPOT”: THIS IS THE CRITICAL AREA FOR RETENTION
Prep (L) vs. No Prep (R): “Sweetspot” Remains
Proper Crown Fit: There are no crown marginsThe SSC fits over the remaining crown and adapts with a crimped contour.
SSC Technique
Proximal Contacts Must be Well Broken
Ledges prevent SSC from telescoping over the tooth
Rubber Dam “Slit Technique”
The “Sloppy Box” Technique
Stainless Steel Crown Preparation
Cut an MOD Prep #330 Bur
Reduce Occlusal 45 Degrees 1/8 A Diamond Bur
Lingual Cusp Reduction-Use Base of MOD Prep as Guide
1-1.5 mm Buccal Counterbevel
Lingual Counterbevel
Round Proximal Box From Line Angle to Line Angle
Mesial Prep Complete/Distal Not Complete
Note: No Gingival Seat Ledge Remains on Mesial!
Distal Prepped: No Ledges
SSC Technique
Note: Rounded Line Angles
Occlusal Reduction: Adequate for Height of SSC ~1-1.5 mm
Select SSC for Mesial-Distal Space: Usually Rocks on From Lingual to Buccal
Should “Snap” into Place Over Cervical Bulge
Check for Open Margins
Remove With Sturdy Instrument
Crimping To Adapt Margins
Band Contouring Plier
Note: Adapted Margins
Uncrimped vs. Crimped
Patient Bites Into Occlusion
Confirm Occlsion
