What Are Dental Sealants?

Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to prevent cavities. They create a barrier that keeps out food and bacteria, making them especially beneficial for kids and teens but also for adults prone to decay. Sealants are recommended for :

  • Protecting permanent molars as soon as they erupt
  • Reducing the risk of cavities in hard-to-clean areas
  • Helping children and teens maintain strong oral health
  • Adults with deep grooves in teeth who are cavity-prone

Modern materials and precise application make sealants a safe, reliable way to protect your smile.
