The Hall Technique: Manual for the management of primary molar caries

Dental caries is an infectious process that affects both children and adults. When caries affects a large amount of dental tissue, a procedure is required to ensure the permanence of the primary tooth in the oral cavity.

The Hall technique is used on primary molars affected by caries, using preformed steel crowns. The effectiveness of this technique is proven, but a careful evaluation by the pediatric dentist is required.

Hall Technique for Stainless Steel Crown in 3 easy steps

The Hall technique is an alternative to the treatment of extensive cavities that have affected a large amount of dental tissue in the primary teeth. This technique consists of placing a preformed metal crown without dental preparation.

Steel crowns are press-fitted on primary molars affected by extensive caries or when the enamel is defective. Thanks to the steel crowns, tooth loss and future occlusion problems are avoided.


We share a video that shows us how to place a steel crown on a primary molar using the Hall technique in 3 easy steps.

The loss of one or more primary teeth can be due to extensive cavities (bottle caries) or to a fracture involving the tooth root (dental trauma). The absence of these teeth generates a series of problems in the occlusion and aesthetics of the child.

The migration of the adjacent teeth, the loss of the alveolar bone and poor occlusion are some of the problems caused by missing teeth. The pediatric patient should undergo radiographic examinations and evaluated by the pediatric dentist and orthodontist.

Anterior dental esthetics in primary teeth - Oral Rehabilitation

When you want to rehabilitate a primary tooth that has been affected by a fracture or extensive dental caries, some characteristics must be taken into account, such as the small size of the tooth and the large size of the dental pulp.

Primary teeth can be affected by bottle tooth decay, or by hypoplastic defects, and in some cases by bruxism. The restoration technique as the aesthetic material to rehabilitate the tooth will be chosen after a correct evaluation by the professional.

Reimplantation of avulsed permanent teeth after three days: Clinical case in a pediatric patient
