Dental sealants are a thin, protective coating (made from plastic or other dental materials) that easily adheres to the chewing surface of your back teeth. This treatment is great for patients of all ages, but is especially common for children. This treatment can easily be completed during a routine dental cleaning and exam — give us a call at (816) 608-8457 to learn more and add it to your visit.
Dental sealants prevent 80% of cavities for 2 years, and 50% of cavities for 4 years.
With proper care, sealants can be retained in the mouth for up to 9 years and easily replaced.
School-age kids without sealants have 3 times more cavities than those with sealants.
The thin coating is painted on in liquid form and hardens in about a minute. That’s all there is to it!
