Sealants

Extra Protection for
the Hardest-Working Teeth

Dental sealants are a quick, painless way to shield your molars — especially for kids, teens, and adults who are cavity-prone. It’s like giving your back teeth a suit of armor that stops decay before it starts.

Common Questions

Will I feel it?

 Nope —

it’s smooth, flat, and barely noticeable.

Can adults get sealants?

Absolutely. If you’re cavity-prone or have deep grooves, sealants are still a great preventive step.

Is it safe for kids?

Completely. We recommend it around ages 6 and 12, as permanent molars come in.

HOW DO SEALANTS WORK?

  1. Quick Cleaning of the Tooth

  2. Special Gel Application to prepare the surface

  3. Sealant Coating — thin, clear/white resin brushed onto the grooves

  4. Painless Curing Light to harden the material

  5. Done in Minutes — no numbing, no drilling

WHY SEALANTS MAKE SENSE

Up to 80% cavity reduction in back teeth

Lasts 3–5+ years with proper care

Totally non-invasive — no needles or discomfort

Covered by most dental insurance plans

Think of it as insurance for your back teeth — simple now, to avoid costly work later.

WHO BENEFITS MOST FROM SEALANTS?

Kids & Teens – Right after permanent molars come in

Cavity-Prone Adults – Especially if you’ve had fillings before

Patients with Deep Grooves – Molars with deep pits are harder to clean

Think of it as insurance for your back teeth — simple now, to avoid costly work later.
