Pediatric, Crowns for four year old

Sunday, Feb. 21st 2010 8:28 AM

Can I have white crown for a four year old?

Okay so my son need two crowns for two of his back teeth.  The dentist I am going to says that he would only do silver metal type of crow for baby teeth.  Since it is not in the back it is not big deal. I would however perfer that my son has white crowns.  I do not care that they would cost more.  He is going to be having his baby teeth for at least seven to eight more years and I do not want him to have metal.

When I told my dentist about this he was acting as if I am wasting my money and that metal crowns would be the only choice I really have.   Is that true?  We go to a family dentist.  Could I get the crowns I want at a pediatric dentist?
