Our dental sealant service is applied to prevent tooth decay by avoiding bacteria and food debris. We especially use it for children and adolescents at BBD Dental Care.
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of teeth, primarily the back molars and premolars. They act as a barrier against bacteria and food particles that can cause cavities.
Why Choose Dental Sealants?
Sealants are an effective preventive measure to protect your teeth from decay. They are especially useful for individuals prone to cavities or those with deep grooves in their teeth that are difficult to clean.
Application Process:
Preparation: The dentist cleans and dries the tooth.
Gel Application: A special gel is applied to the tooth to help the sealant bond.
Sealant Application: The sealant is painted onto the tooth and hardened with a light.
Benefits:
Prevents Cavities: Sealants effectively reduce the risk of decay by covering vulnerable areas.
Durable Protection: They can last up to 10 years with proper care.
Invisible: Sealants are clear or tooth-colored, making them virtually invisible.
Dental sealants offer a simple yet highly effective way to protect your teeth from decay. Ideal for both children and adults, they help maintain long-term oral health with minimal discomfort.
