Dental Sealants

A protective shield against decay in hard-to-reach molars.

Dentist applying a sealant to a molar

The deep grooves in back teeth are notoriously difficult to keep clean, even with diligent brushing. Sealants fill those grooves with a thin protective coating, dramatically reducing the risk of cavities.

The application is quick, painless, and especially valuable for children and teens, though adults with cavity-prone molars benefit as well.

Benefits

  • Reduces cavity risk in molars by a significant margin
  • Quick, painless, no-drilling application
  • Lasts several years with proper care
  • An affordable layer of long-term prevention
