What are Dental Sealants?

Dental sealants are a protective, thin coating applied to the chewing surfaces of your child's molars and premolars. This clear or tooth-colored coating creates a barrier that helps prevent cavities by sealing out plaque and food particles from getting stuck in the deep grooves of the teeth. It's a simple, painless procedure that adds an extra layer of defense for your child’s oral health. At Memorial Children’s Dentistry, we recommend dental sealants as part of a comprehensive preventative care plan, particularly for children who are more prone to cavities.

Benefits of Dental Sealants

Early Intervention

Dental sealants provide early protection for newly erupted teeth, preventing decay before it starts, which reduces the need for more extensive treatments later on.

Safe and Proven

Sealants are a safe, reliable solution that dental professionals have recommended for decades, effectively preventing cavities in children’s teeth.

Improved Oral Hygiene

By sealing deep grooves, dental sealants make it easier for children to keep their teeth clean, reducing the risk of plaque buildup and decay.

Dental Sealants Application Process

Teeth Cleaning

First, your child’s teeth will be thoroughly cleaned to remove any plaque or food particles. This ensures the surface of the teeth is ready for the sealant application.

Sealant Application

A special dental solution is applied to the chewing surfaces of the molars, followed by the liquid sealant. The sealant is then painted onto the teeth and hardened with a curing light.

Final Check

Once the sealant has hardened, the dentist will check to ensure the sealant has fully bonded to the tooth and make any necessary adjustments, ensuring a smooth and comfortable fit.
