Purpose: This study aims to analyze stainless steel crown (SSC) sizes on crowns cemented to establish average sizes on different clinical scenarios and help providers have a reliable starting point when fitting SSCs.
Methods: Charts from patients aged 3 to 8 years treated under general anesthesia in UK Chandler Hospital between July 1st 2022 and June 30th 2023 will be reviewed and data regarding SSC size will be collected. The sizes will be obtained considering the restored tooth and two different clinical scenarios: crowns placed on single posterior tooth and crowns placed on multiple adjacent posterior teeth. Data analysis will include the description of the relative and absolute frequencies of the variables. Association tests will be performed for ordinal variables.
Results/
Conclusion: Final data pending.
