Dental Sealants
One common preventative dentistry treatment is the use of dental sealants. Dental sealants are a thin, protective coating that is applied to the chewing surfaces of your back teeth. These molars and premolars are prone to cavities, as their grooves and pits can easily trap food particles and bacteria.
Sealants act as a barrier, protecting these vulnerable areas from decay-causing substances. They are typically recommended for children but can also be beneficial for adults who are prone to cavities.
During your regularly scheduled dental cleaning or oral exam, our dentist will examine your teeth and let you know if we would recommend the use of a dental sealant for your teeth.
