Dental sealants are a thin, protective coating applied to the grooves and pits of back teeth, primarily molars, to prevent cavities. They are a highly effective preventive measure, especially for children and teens.

Benefits:

• Cavity Prevention: Sealants significantly reduce the risk of decay in hard-to-clean areas.
• Easy Maintenance: They create a smoother surface, making it easier to brush and maintain oral hygiene.
• Quick Application: The procedure is quick, usually completed in one visit without discomfort.

Who Should Get Sealants?
Children are the primary candidates, particularly when their molars emerge. However, adults with deep grooves or a history of cavities can also benefit.
