Another term for crowning depends on context, as crowning is used in both childbirth and other fields. In labor and childbirth, medical professionals may also say the baby's head is visible, the head is at the introitus, the head is on view, or the baby is crowning, and laypeople may say the baby is coming or the head is out. The moment itself is sometimes called the ring of fire stage because of the burning sensation. In dentistry, another term for crowning a tooth is capping a tooth, placing a cap, or placing a dental crown. In general achievement contexts, another term for crowning achievement is greatest achievement, pinnacle, culmination, or crowning glory. In royalty and ceremony, crowning is also called coronation, enthronement, or investiture. In slang meaning hitting someone on head, crowning can be called conking. In sports, crowning a champion is also called declaring a champion or naming a champion. For hair, crowning glory is another term for a person's best feature, often hair. So the synonym for crowning varies widely, but in childbirth the closest alternative terms are head visible at outlet or ring of fire stage.
