Dental sealants are thin coatings applied to teeth, usually molars, to protect against decay. They shield grooves where food and bacteria get trapped, reducing the risk of cavities by up to 80%.
No, sealants work for both kids and adults! While children are common candidates, adults with deep grooves in their teeth or those with dry mouths from medications can benefit from sealants, too.
Not at all! Sealants are applied in minutes. After cleaning, a gel is prepared for the tooth, and the sealant is painted on and then hardened with light. It's fast, painless, and non-invasive.
Absolutely! The sealants used at Chesterland Family Dental Care are non-toxic and safe for all ages. They bond securely to teeth without harming the enamel or gums, giving you peace of mind.
