Sometimes even careful brushing may not clean all the contours of teeth. When bacteria start to form, plaque will build up and lead to decay. Even the smallest cavity will need a filling. Is there a way to prevent all this from happening? Fortunately, there is! One application of dental sealants is a good preventive measure.Here’s how easy it is. All the teeth are cleaned and sterilized. A thin coat of sealant is applied. It is clear or white and therefore invisible. The sealant is bonded to the tooth structure with a curing light. And that is the whole procedure that takes only minutes! There are no shots or drills used and no tooth structure is removed.
It is a safe and excellent preventive therapy for children and adolescents to help them keep their natural teeth.
