Cosmetic Services - Dental sealants
 When you think back to your childhood and all the candy
you bought with your allowance, it’s no wonder we had
so many cavities when we were kids. It likely didn’t help
that we approached brushing and flossing with the same
enthusiasm we did cleaning our rooms.
Although kids haven’t changed much over the years, dentistry
has. Today, plastic sealants are commonly used to help
protect children’s teeth during the years when they are
most susceptible to decay. Bonded into the grooves on
the chewing surface of the back teeth, sealants smooth
the surface of the tooth, making it easier to brush and
less likely to trap food.
Although sealants are most often applied to newly erupted
permanent teeth, adults with deep pits and fissures in
their molars may also benefit from treatment. The procedure
is simple and pain-free, and its effects can last for
five years or more.
