At Kids Tooth Team Buda, our minimally invasive approach is all about catching concerns early and treating them with care. Because baby teeth have thinner enamel, cavities can spread fast—but with the right materials and smart techniques, we can protect your child’s smile with fewer appointments and less stress. It’s all about preserving what’s healthy and making dental visits easier for families like yours.
Minimally-invasive restorative dentistry means fixing teeth the gentle way. Instead of drilling away healthy tooth structure, we use smart tools and tiny touches to treat just what’s needed—nothing more. By catching cavities early with AI-powered X-rays, restoring teeth with tooth-colored composite fillings, and using beautiful white zirconia crowns when needed, we help your child stay comfortable while keeping their natural smile intact. It’s a kinder, quicker way to care for little teeth—without the stress.
At Kids Tooth Team Buda, we know every child’s smile is one of a kind. That’s why we take a customized approach to care, offering a range of gentle techniques to diagnose and treat decay with less drilling, fewer appointments, and more comfort for your kiddo.
Here in Buda, we’re proud to go beyond the basics. Most dentists miss up to 40% of cavities on standard X-rays—but not us. Kids Tooth Team Buda uses Overjet, a powerful AI-assisted X-ray tool that helps us spot early signs of decay with incredible accuracy. It’s like having an extra expert on your side, giving our team an extra layer of precision and peace of mind for parents.
We know kids in Buda do best when they feel safe and comfortable. That’s why we offer the Hall Crown technique for baby teeth with cavities between the molars. With no shots and no drills required, this crown fits right over the tooth to seal and protect it—no scary tools necessary. It’s a highly effective and minimally invasive solution with proven long-term results.
Sometimes, the gentlest treatment is also the smartest. At our Buda location, we often use silver diamine fluoride (SDF) to stop early-stage cavities from getting worse—especially when we catch them with advanced tech like Overjet. It’s a quick, painless treatment that can help avoid fillings altogether. Less drilling, more prevention—that’s what we’re all about.

Throw a lasso 'round our New Patient Special!
At Kids Tooth Team in Buda, we offer a full range of restorative treatments to keep your child’s smile healthy, strong, and pain-free—no matter what surprises come up along the way.
Spotted some white or brown marks on your child’s teeth? These could be early signs of enamel weakness. Resin infiltration is a gentle, drill-free solution that seals and strengthens these vulnerable spots before they turn into cavities. The resin flows into the enamel and hardens, smoothing out the surface, preventing decay from spreading deeper, and preserving your child’s natural tooth structure. It’s a safe, comfortable way to stop cavities before they start!
We don’t use silver fillings at Kids Tooth Team. Instead, we use tooth-colored composite material that blends right in with your child’s smile. Composite fillings bond tightly to the tooth, helping to strengthen it and prevent future issues. They’re durable, mercury-free, and virtually invisible—so your child can smile with confidence.
If a baby tooth is lost too soon, a space maintainer keeps that gap open so nearby teeth don’t drift into the wrong spot. These tiny appliances help ensure your child’s permanent teeth come in straight and healthy, reducing the need for orthodontics down the road.
When a baby tooth gets a deep cavity or infection, a pulpotomy can save it. We remove the damaged part of the nerve, apply a healing material, and place a crown over the tooth—all in one visit. It’s a quick, effective way to stop pain and protect your child’s smile until their adult teeth come in.
For more serious infections, we may recommend a pulpectomy. This involves cleaning out the entire nerve space inside the tooth and placing medicine to prevent further damage. Our team is specially trained in this technique, which allows us to save baby teeth that other practices might extract. If you’ve been told your child’s tooth has to come out, we’re happy to provide a second opinion.
If your child has a tongue or lip tie that’s causing trouble with nursing, eating, or speech, a frenectomy may help. This simple procedure gently releases the tight tissue to restore full motion. Our doctors use a conservative, case-by-case approach—because not every tie needs to be treated. We offer complimentary consultations if you’re unsure whether this is the right step for your child.
Whether it’s a stubborn baby tooth, a tooth with advanced decay, or one that needs to be removed for orthodontic reasons, we make extractions as easy and gentle as possible. Our doctors are trained in both simple and surgical extractions, including the removal of “mesiodens”—extra teeth that sometimes develop behind or between the front teeth.

Tooth decay happens when bacteria in your child’s mouth feed on sugars and starches from food, creating acids that attack the enamel—the outer protective layer of their teeth. Over time, this can lead to cavities.
Traditionally, decay was treated by drilling out the affected area and placing a filling. But today, if we catch it early, we may be able to use resin infiltration, a drill-free option that stops decay in its tracks without removing healthy enamel.
Yes, absolutely. Even though baby teeth eventually fall out, they’re critical for your child’s ability to chew, speak, and maintain proper spacing for permanent teeth. A cavity can cause pain, infection, and even lead to issues with developing adult teeth if left untreated.
At Kids Tooth Team in Buda, we offer several kid-friendly treatment options like white zirconia crowns, stainless steel crowns, and composite fillings—each designed to protect your child’s tooth and restore their smile. If you notice any signs of a cavity—like tooth sensitivity, dark spots, or gum inflammation—schedule a visit right away.
A space maintainer may be recommended if your child loses a baby tooth early due to injury or decay. These small appliances hold the space open to ensure their adult teeth have room to grow in properly, which helps prevent crowding or misalignment.
Not every child who loses a tooth needs one. If their adult tooth is about to erupt naturally, or if the baby tooth falls out on schedule, a space maintainer likely isn’t necessary. If you’re unsure, a quick visit to our Buda pediatric dental office can help us determine what’s best for your child’s smile.
In infants, the most common signs of a tongue or lip tie include trouble latching during breastfeeding or bottle feeding, excessive gas or burping, and slow weight gain. As your child gets older, signs might include speech delays, difficulty eating certain foods, or struggling to pronounce sounds like “T,” “D,” “N,” and “S.”
At Kids Tooth Team, we take a conservative, holistic approach to diagnosing and treating ties. Not all ties require release, so we’ll assess your child’s oral function and development carefully before recommending a frenectomy. Consultations are always pressure-free and informative.
Extractions are usually a last resort. But sometimes, they’re necessary—like when a tooth is too damaged to save, or when extra teeth (like mesiodens) are present. Extractions may also be part of an orthodontic plan or needed if a wisdom tooth is impacted.
Our team provides gentle, stress-free extractions right here in Buda. If a baby tooth is removed early, we may recommend a space maintainer. If it’s a permanent tooth, we’ll talk through replacement options such as bridges or future dental implants once your child is fully grown.
