A dental sealant is a thin coating placed on teeth to protect teeth from bacteria, preventing cavities.

Using Dental Sealants

Dental sealants are thin and unrecognizable by others. They are placed primarily on the back teeth where most chewing happens.
The purpose is to prevent bacteria from causing cavities and other problems on teeth by protecting teeth surface.

Composition of Sealants

Sealants can be made of one of four elements. Most are made from resin-based materials while other materials include glass ionomer cement, polyacid-modified resin, and resin-modified glass ionomers. Sealants can remain on your teeth for nine years so it’s a procedure that is not repeated often.

Using Sealants on Children

One of the biggest groups that sealants benefit is children. Sealants can be used either on baby teeth or permanent teeth on children to protect them through their growing years. One of the reasons for using sealants on children’s teeth is because it protects teeth for those who are more vulnerable to cavities either because it’s hard to brush back teeth or with other medical issues.
