What Are Dental Sealants?
Indentations on the top of the molars tend to hold onto more food particles and tartar and so are more at risk for having cavities. Dental sealants, an important aspect of preventive dentistry, are applied to safeguard the teeth from cavities caused by decay. These fine defensive coverings are created from a clear or tooth-colored material that is painted onto the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. As soon as they're set, they can defend these teeth and create a more even surface, which is easier to maintain. Dental sealants from Advantage Dentists and Orthodontics don't just help ward off cavities; they could also reduce your family's needs for tooth-colored fillings or other restorative services later on. Talk to Dr. Sula E. Umansky during your regular dental visits at our Atascocita, TX office to decide if you or your child may benefit from dental sealants.
What Is the Sealant Process?
Before beginning, Dr. Sula Umansky will have to evaluate the teeth to learn if dental sealants are the ideal option for you or your family. To get your mouth ready for dental sealants, a professional on our staff will polish the enamel to eliminate any tartar, food debris, and bacteria from the tops of the teeth. The enamel is then dried, and a fine sheet of sealant liquid is then applied evenly into the fissures with a tiny brush. A curing light will be set on top of the tooth, which will solidify the sealant coating in approximately 10 – 20 seconds. Once each sealant is applied, our team will evaluate your bite for alignment and supply you with tips about how to effectively take care of your sealants.
What Are the Benefits of Dental Sealants?
At Advantage Dentists and Orthodontics, we like sealants for many of our Atascocita, TX patients as an added protective approach for their teeth. These sealants offer multiple benefits for our patients, some of which include:
- Preserve effort and cost by keeping your mouth healthy
