3 reasons why Dental Sealant?

 1.   Total preventive care of children

 2. Easy  and painless  procedure

 3. Repeatable procedure

1.  Preventive is better than cure

Most tooth decay in children and teens occurs on chewing surfaces of the back teeth because there have pit and fissures where the toothbrush bristle can’t reach even with good oral hygiene habit. 

Sealants protect it from tooth decay by keeping germs and food out of these tiny grooves.

A fissure sealant is a protective coating of plastic applied to the biting surfaces of the back teeth. Then, the surface will become smooth and easier for cleaning.

2. Pain-free and easy procedure

No drilling procedure needed and no destruction of tooth structure. It takes about 2 minutes to finish the whole procedure.

3. Repeatable

It can wear over time, and sometimes needs to be added to or replaced. It can replace with new material because there is no harm to the tooth and no any destruction on tooth structure occur.
