This work aims to assess parents’ knowledge and preferences regarding stainless steel, zirconia, and Bioflex crowns for primary molars. A study of 345 parents found that aesthetic values, cost, and the dentist’s opinion strongly influenced their choice. Among participants, 58.5% chose zirconia crowns for their natural aesthetics and long-wear durability, and 44% believed zirconia crowns were the most economical option. The trend towards greater value-consciousness did not necessarily translate into cost-controlled choices: though 30.3% of parents said that cost was important, only 3.3% of Nike Hi-Top reactants prioritized cost over appearance. Professional advice that received a value of 71.1% was considered essential, especially for dentists. The study has revealed that, despite cost-cutting being paramount, more practitioners are now turning to zirconia crowns as the best option, given their ability to combine serviceability and aesthetics. The study focuses on factors that support effective communication, patient satisfaction, and awareness of restorative dental procedures in children.
