Efectividad de coronas metálicas en niños de 5 - 7 años, Clínica UCSG Semestre A-2018.

Abstract

Introduction: It can be said that metal crowns are the most successful posterior restorations in primary teeth. Objective: It is to evaluate the restoration in temporary teeth with metallic crowns to know the effectiveness that they have at the moment of their revision and diagnosis. Materials and Methods: The work was descriptive of observational type with cross-sectional data. The sample was collected from patients who received metal crowns in children 5-7 years of age. Results: 61 children from 5 to 7 years of age of both genders participated. 22 children excellent proximal contact quality in one (36.1%) after the placement of the metal crown, 25 children, contact quality was acceptable with (41%), and 14 children, quality of proximal contact was bad (2. 3%). The conventional technique (100%). 44 children, normal position (72.1%), 17 children, position rotated but in occlusion (27.9), defective occlusion (0%). 33 children, gingival index 0, (54.1%), 28 children, index 1, (45.9%), index 2 and 3, (0%). Piece 54, 1 child (1.6%), P. 55, 3 children (4.9%), P. 64, 3 children (4.9%), P. 65, 3 children (4.9%), P. 74, 6 children (9.8%), P. 75, 16 children (26.2%), P. 84, 12 children (19.7%), P. 85, 17 children (27.9 %). Conclusion: We can conclude with this study the effectiveness of metallic crowns in children, taking into account that the quality of proximal contact is acceptable in most children taking into account the gingival index was lower which means greater success in the adaptation of metal crowns.
