How to Use This Calculator
- Select the Tooth position (1–6): upper/lower primary molars or first permanent molars.
- Measure and enter the Mesiodistal width in mm using calipers on the prepared tooth — measure at the widest contact point.
- Enter the Proximal reduction per side (mm) performed during preparation and the Occlusal reduction (mm) for crown seating.
- Review the Recommended crown size (2–7), plus the Try size down and Try size up options to have adjacent sizes ready at chairside.
- Note the Nominal crown height (mm), Estimated crimping needed (mm), Total proximal reduction (mm), and Fit assessment (0 = likely tight, 1 = good fit, 2 = likely loose) to guide final seating.
