Sealants
Extra protection for cavity-prone teeth.
When to Choose Dental Sealants
Shielding hard-to-reach areas from decay.
The back teeth, the molars and premolars, have deep grooves and pits that make them more vulnerable to cavities. These areas can easily trap food and bacteria, and even with good brushing, they’re difficult to keep clean. Dental sealants provide a protective barrier, sealing off these surfaces to stop decay before it starts. Sealants are especially beneficial for children and teens, but adults can also benefit from this added protection.
The Sealant Application Process
Quick, painless, and highly effective.
Applying sealants is simple and requires no drilling or numbing. The process includes:

- Cleaning & Drying – The tooth is carefully cleaned and dried.
- Bonding Solution – A light solution is applied to prepare the enamel for sealing.
- Sealant Placement – The thin resin coating is painted onto the tooth’s grooves.
- Curing – A special light hardens the material in seconds, forming a durable shield.
Sealants can last several years with proper care, and they can be reapplied as needed during regular checkups.
A Preventive Step for Lifelong Smiles
When combined with daily brushing, flossing, and routine dental visits, sealants offer an extra layer of protection that helps keep your family’s smiles healthy and cavity-free.
