edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWNs
The edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWNs are produced using an innovative, patented laser process, where glass crystals are sintered and vitrified, resulting in a homogeneous glass-ceramic phase embedded in a carbon matrix. This bioceramic composition offers several advantages:

  • Biomimetic Mechanics: The material mimics the properties of natural teeth.

  • Esthetic Appearance: The crowns have a natural, aesthetic look.

  • Biocompatibility: They are free from BIS GMA, BIS EMA, and UDMA, making them highly body-compatible.

Anatomical Shape and High Aesthetics
The anatomical profiles of the edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWNs ensure an accurate reproduction of natural primary teeth, both in the anterior and posterior areas. With improved physical properties, the crowns can be used directly as single crowns on primary teeth.

Prefabricated, Radiopaque Crown
The edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWNs are prefabricated, radiopaque crowns that replicate the anatomical basis of the enamel layer of the tooth. When used with edelweiss COMPOSITE, they can be applied for both simple and complex restorations of primary teeth with superficial or deep caries.

  • Protection Until Natural Exfoliation: The PEDIATRIC CROWNs protect the primary tooth until its natural loss.

  • Functional Support: They maintain correct occlusal contacts with the opposing teeth, and optimal occlusion can be easily achieved through adjustment of the crown. No modification of the opposing natural tooth is necessary.

Simple and Quick Treatment
Treating the tooth with PEDIATRIC CROWNs is straightforward and quick, leading to a bioesthetic and functional end result that blends perfectly with the natural dentition. The required preparation is minimal and limited to the extent of the caries, reducing the risk of iatrogenic exposure of the pulp of the primary tooth.

Cementation
The PEDIATRIC CROWNs are cemented with the same material from which they are made, ensuring a stable connection for the entire restoration (dentin/enamel + composite + PEDIATRIC CROWN). Alternatively, they can be cemented with conventional glass ionomer cement or resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC).

    Product Recommendation

    edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWNS

    “As a dentist, treating the child patient requires more of my attention, skill and care. Up until now, stainless steel crowns were for me, as a mother of a daughter, the single and easiest way of getting a functional restoration with minimal costs.”

    However, most children and their parents were very disappointed with the “metal look” and poor esthetics. Parents wanted both esthetics and function in a single crown.

    For me, the edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWNs are the perfect way to create a perfect natural esthetic crown with minimal invasive procedures where I am in total control of the final outcome. My patients are never stressed and the parents are always happy with the results.

    The edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWN has all the qualities of an ideal pediatric crown.

    Empowering Pediatric Dentistry

    by incorporating edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWNs into your practice, you can offer cutting-edge solutions to your patients, showcasing your commitment to providing the best in pediatric dental care.

    edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWNs

    are made of a laser sintered barium glass, which makes them both highly antibacterial and plaque resistant. These crowns are biocompatible; they have the same abrasion as natural teeth, hence the edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWN does not damage the antagonist tooth. The mesial and distal margins of the edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWN follow the natural gingival line of the milk teeth. 

    The edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWN perfectly imitates the natural milk tooth in both form and function. The pre-fabricated, bio esthetical morphology allows for a quick and safe treatment. You can achieve maximum esthetical results, which are minimally invasive, in one appointment. No matter what the dental situation, edelweiss has the right crown for it.

    Sizes

    One size for all

    Based on a study of all shapes and size variations of natural tooth anatomy, prefabricated and contourable universal PEDIATRIC CROWN shapes for the upper and lower arch were developed in the following range of sizes (Small, Medium, Large).

    The choice

    The choice of the tooth shape is performed with the available Sizing Guide (edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWN Sizing Guide).
    The Sizing Guide is positioned over the teeth to be restored, in which the visible profile allows for proper selection of the best fitting edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWN. Adjustments can be illustrated directly on the template.

    Shade Range

    edelweiss Shade Guide

    edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWNs consist of the shade Enamel – Vita Enamel AO. The respective dentin and enamel shades used to cement the edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWN will determine the final shade tone of the restoration.

    Shade Selection

    Placing the enamel VENEER (same shade as PEDIATRIC CROWN) shell over the dentin core. For light refraction place glycerine within enamel shell first.

    Natural Layering Technique

    The concept was proposed in 1995 by Prof. Dr. D. Dietschi and was published for the first time in 1997. It is based on the idea of creating a synthesis between light, materialand color in order to mimic the natural tooth structure.

    edelweiss COMPOSITE restructures teeth using two toothlike masses that are comparable to the vita dentin and enamel…

    5 x Dentin

    Single opacity - same hue, but different chroma levels - fluorescence. From Dentin A0, for the restoration of bleached teeth to Dentin A3.5, for cervical restorations of darker teeth for elderly patients.

    Dentin Body shades exhibit high opacity and fluorescence which correspond to natural shades of dentin.

    1 x Enamel

    Enamel shade intensifies the translucency, which increase the true opalescence for all optical variations found in natural dentition.

    Basic Tint:
    Enamel

    3 x Effect Shades

    Effect Blue serves to enhance blue-opalescent effects of the incisal edge.

    Effect Ice helps to simulate widespread enamel opacities.

    Opaque White is mainly used in combination with other shades to produce “opaquers” of desired shade to cover either severely discolored tissues or metals.

    Tint: Effect Blue, Effect Ice,
    Opaque White

    edelweiss Shade System

    edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWN consist of the shade Enamel – Vita Enamel AO.
    The respective dentin and enamel shades used to cement the PEDIATRIC CROWN will determine the final shade tone of the restoration.

    Example: edelweiss PEDIATRIC CROWN (Vita Enamel Shade AO) cemented with Dentin Shade A3 (Vita Dentin Shade A3) will result in the Vita Dentin Shade A3.
