Do my kids REALLY need crowns on their teeth?

Stainless steel crowns are placed on baby teeth when the teeth have too much decay to use a filling. If you go to a pediatrician, they want to increase their income in the office, and usually the parents have insurance. The insurance pays little for fillings, but a lot for crowns. I would not have crowns placed as it is not comfortable for the patient. But the only other alternative is to wait until the baby teeth fall out. Usually the teeth will fall out on thier own before they will cause pain. Unfortunately, some schools want a letter from a dentist saying your child has no bad teeth. This is what sociallism is doing to our country
