At Seaview Dental, we prioritize preventive care, and one of the valuable tools we use to protect your teeth is dental sealants. Dental sealants are a safe and effective way to shield your teeth from decay and maintain optimal oral health.
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of your back teeth, where decay commonly occurs. These sealants act as a barrier, sealing off the deep grooves and crevices that are vulnerable to plaque and bacteria buildup. By creating a smooth surface, sealants make it easier to clean and maintain good oral hygiene.
The application of dental sealants is a quick and painless process. Our dentists will clean and dry your teeth before applying the sealant material. Using a special light, we bond the sealant to your teeth, creating a strong and durable shield.
Sealants are particularly beneficial for children and teenagers, as they are more prone to cavities due to difficulty maintaining thorough oral hygiene. However, adults can also benefit from sealants, especially if they have deep grooves or a history of tooth decay.
By investing in dental sealants you are taking a proactive step towards preventing tooth decay and the need for more extensive dental work in the future.
