Preventive
Dental Sealants
Protective coatings for molars that seal deep grooves and dramatically reduce the risk of cavities in children and teens.
Overview
Shield back teeth from decay.
The chewing surfaces of molars have deep grooves where food and bacteria collect. Sealants create a smooth protective barrier — one of the most effective ways to prevent cavities in young permanent teeth.
Groove protection
Sealant flows into pits and fissures that brushing often misses.
No drilling
Application is quick, painless, and needs no anaesthesia.
Long-lasting
Sealants can protect teeth for several years with regular check-ups.
