What is the best way to place one of your posterior crowns for primary teeth?

Cheng Crowns correspond to 3M Unitek® stainless steel crown sizes. Determine your patients’ tooth size with a 3M Unitek crown prior to use of Cheng Crowns to eliminate the need for unnecessary loading and re-sterilization.

How should I sterilize Cheng Crowns?

Cheng Crowns Pre-veenered Classic Crowns: We recommend cold sterilization with hydrogen peroxide based sterilants (e.g. Revital-Ox, Sporox II) that are safer and less irritating than glutaraldehyde. Autoclave or chemiclave methods may compromise the integrity and color of the veneer, and thus should not be used.

Cheng Crowns Monolithic Ceramic Zirconia Crowns: Autoclave sterilization is recommended.

How does pre-crimping your crowns make them superior?

Our Classic crowns for primary teeth are pre-crimped to increase retention and ensure a stronger and reliable fit to the tooth structure during cementing. Additional crimping on the lingual side of the crown can be performed as needed. Watch our crown preparation videos for more information on pediatric crown crimping.

Our Zironia crowns have a built in Crimplock design that features a simulated crimp.

All Cheng Crowns pediatric crowns can be cemented with any high quality glass ionomer or resin-modified glass ionomer cement.
