​Sealants for Children and Adults

The grooves of our teeth are often deeper and narrower than our toothbrush can reach. As a result, bacteria or plaque can be left behind after we clean our teeth. This chronic exposure of our teeth to bacteria and plaque can unfortunately lead to tooth decay in the grooves or below the enamel in the dentin of the tooth. Once decay is present, a filling will need to be done to "clean out" the cavity and restore the tooth to proper shape and function.

A sealant is a preventive resin material that your hygienist flows deep into the grooves and pits of the tooth to "seal off" those unreachable and susceptible areas of the tooth - thus making the tooth more cleansable and helping prevent tooth decay.
​
Sealants are a great way to prevent tooth decay for both children and adults. Many people think sealants are just for kids, but our doctors believe that adults can gain a great benefit from them as well. Ask our staff about sealants for your children AND for you!
