Dental Sealants

What do Dental Sealants refer to?

Dental sealants, composed of thin protective coatings made from dental materials like plastic, are applied to the chewing surfaces of your molars and premolars. While suitable for all age groups, they are commonly recommended for children. This treatment can be conveniently administered during your regular dental cleaning and examination. If you’re curious to know more about dental sealants or wish to schedule an appointment for their application, feel free to contact us at (469) 912-1420.

Anticipate during a Dental Sealant procedure?

First, we will conduct a comprehensive examination of the tooth or teeth requiring sealing. If any decay is detected, we will promptly remove it. Next, we will apply a solution to enhance the adhesion of the sealant to the tooth’s surface. Finally, we will skillfully apply the sealant to the tooth, utilizing a specialized curing light if necessary. And that concludes the entire process!

Shields Your Teeth Against Cavities

Studies have shown that dental sealants can reduce the risk of cavities by 80% over two years and by 50% over four years.

Durable Protection

Sealants can last up to 9 years in the mouth and can be easily replaced with proper care.

Ideal for Children!

Children who do not have sealants on their teeth are three times more likely to develop cavities compared to those who do.
