DENTAL SEALANTS: CREATING POSITIVE DENTAL EXPERIENCES
While brushing and flossing your teeth every day is the most effective way to prevent cavities, it can be tough for some people to remove food properly. This is especially true for the back molars. Because of their uneven surface, food tends to get stuck despite brushing, giving cavity-causing bacteria the chance to wreak havoc.
One of the most effective ways to eliminate this problem and thereby reduce the risk of cavities is with dental sealants. Studies have shown that sealants can reduce the risk of decay by 80% in molars.
In children and adolescents, dental sealants are very important. Not only do they help prevent cavities, but they can also lead to a more positive dental experience and reduce the risk of dental phobia. According to the CDC, school-age children without sealants have almost three times more cavities than children with sealants.
A dental sealant is a thin, protective coating painted on the chewing surface of the teeth. The clear coating can last for several years before it needs to be reapplied. Dr. Engel will evaluate your teeth during your examination to determine the sealant’s condition and reapply as needed. Some dental plans cover dental sealants. We will let you know if yours covers it too!
