Dental sealants act as a barrier, protecting the pits and grooves of the biting surfaces of the back teeth where decay occurs most frequently. With dental sealants, we create a smooth surface that the bristles in your toothbrush have no trouble cleaning.
A dental sealant is made of a plastic resin that is brushed on your teeth in a quick, painless procedure. Sealants are placed primarily on permanent molar teeth before decay occurs, which protects teeth in a minimally invasive, less costly manner.
