Pediatric Dental Service
Crowns
Our crowns in Sachse protect delicate baby molars and restore broken teeth for kids who need long-lasting solutions. At Turtle Bay Pediatric Dentistry in Sachse, TX, Dr. Ademola Cole leads a team that makes these visits calm and efficient. We explain options, use digital X-ray when needed, and offer nitrous oxide for anxious kids. Our goal is to preserve tooth function and avoid future problems while keeping visits friendly — TVs, free Wi‑Fi, and a goodie bag help, too.

Types of Crowns We Offer
We provide two common cap choices for children: stainless steel caps for baby teeth and tooth-colored caps for visible teeth. Stainless steel caps fit over a molar that has a large cavity or needs reinforcement; they protect the tooth until it naturally falls out. Tooth-colored caps restore front or visible teeth when appearance matters. We discuss which option suits your child, factoring in age, tooth position, and long-term needs. If a case requires deeper sedation, an anesthesiologist is available once a month for IV sedation.
When A Cap Might Be Necessary
A cap can stop pain and keep a damaged tooth working for chewing and speech. Look for:
- Persistent toothache or sensitivity.
- Large decay that weakens tooth structure.
- Cracked or broken teeth after an injury.
If you notice any of these signs, bring your child in. We’ll assess with a visual exam and a quick digital X‑ray. Then we’ll outline options and timing. You’ll leave with a clear plan and a timeline that fits your family’s schedule.
What To Expect During Placement
The appointment moves in clear steps so kids feel secure. First, we numb the area and, when helpful, offer nitrous oxide to reduce anxiety. Then we gently shape the tooth and fit the cap. Most visits last under an hour for a single cap. For more complex needs, we coordinate with our monthly anesthesiologist. Our team provides comfort throughout the visit, and kids can watch a favorite show on our TVs afterward. We explain aftercare and send your family home with a goodie bag.
Benefits Parents See
Placing a cap can:
- Prevent further decay and infection.
- Restore chewing comfort and normal speech.
- Protect developing tooth roots and surrounding teeth.
Parents often tell us how relieved they are to avoid repeat procedures. Our approach aims to limit future problems and keep treatments as gentle as possible. We use clear communication so you understand why we recommend a cap and what the alternatives are.
Aftercare And Follow-Up
Keeping caps healthy is easy with routine habits. Encourage your child to brush twice daily with a fluoride toothpaste and floss around the capped tooth. Checkups and cleanings let us monitor fit and wear. If a cap loosens or your child feels new pain, call us right away. We’ll re-evaluate and repair or replace the cap if needed. Regular visits help prevent replacement and protect permanent teeth as they come in.
