On a 5 point-Likert-scale, a questionnaire was used to assess parental satisfaction was evaluated by parents at 12 months. Results Parental satisfaction with the treatment was excellent; however, satisfaction with regard to color received the highest significant rating (100%) for zirconia crowns compared to stainless steel crowns. Parents rated their overall satisfaction in the size, shape and durability after 12 months from baseline.
