Sealants

Dental sealants are protective plastic coatings applied to the chewing surface of permanent teeth. Sealants may be recommended when teeth have deep grooves that may be more susceptible to decay.

An examination of your teeth will determine if dental sealants would be a benefit.

Please note this when you request an appointment to learn more about dental sealants.
