Dental sealants are a highly effective preventive treatment designed to protect your teeth from decay. Dr. Danny Lee and associates offer professional dental sealants in West Covina, California, to help patients maintain healthy and cavity-free smiles.
What Are Dental Sealants?
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars and premolars). These areas are prone to decay because their grooves and pits can trap food particles and bacteria.
Benefits of Dental Sealants
- Prevents Cavities: Sealants create a smooth surface over the tooth’s grooves, preventing bacteria and food particles from getting trapped and causing decay.
- Long-Lasting Protection: Sealants can provide protection for several years, making them a cost-effective preventive measure.
- Quick and Painless: The application process is quick, noninvasive and completely painless, making it an ideal preventive treatment for children and adults.
How Dental Sealants Work
- Cleaning: The teeth are thoroughly cleaned to remove any plaque or food particles.
- Application: A special gel is applied to prepare the tooth surface, followed by the sealant material.
- Curing: The sealant is hardened using a special light, creating a durable shield over the tooth.
