Dental sealants are thin, plastic coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars. These areas are particularly vulnerable to tooth decay due to their deep grooves and crevices, making them difficult to clean with regular brushing. With diligent upkeep and attentive maintenance, their longevity spans several years. We will check your condition during regular check-ups and reapply them as needed. They are a non-invasive, painless, and cost-effective solution for preventing cavities. There are no drills, no shots, and no discomfort involved in the process.While sealants are beneficial for patients of all ages, they are particularly recommended for children and teenagers as their newly erupted permanent teeth are most susceptible to decay. Adults sporting intricate grooves in their molars can also find valuable protection through the application of sealants.

They work hand in hand with your regular oral hygiene routine. While they protect the vulnerable chewing surfaces, it’s important to continue brushing, flossing, and attending regular check-ups to maintain overall dental health.
