ECC is a common chronic disease in children that could harm self-esteem, nutrition, oral cavity development, also quality of life, then veer to malocclusions and psychological problems. In children with severe early childhood caries (SECC), losing vertical dimension of occlusion were also reported to occur 2.5 times more. Restoration of deciduous teeth with severe damage offers great challenge for pediatric dentists. This case reported clinical management of patients suffering from SECC using stainless steel crown to restore masticatory function and vertical dimensions. A 5-year-old boy escorted by his parents came to pedodontic dentistry Clinic at Universitas Padjadjaran Dental and Oral Hospital, with complaints of many tooth were damage. On clinical examination, it was shown that all primary teeth have caries, except for the two mandibular lateral incisor, teeth 16 and 26 were partial eruption, with deep bite in the anterior region.
