WHAT ARE SEALANT?

Dental sealant is a plastic coating that protects teeth from the effects of decay. A dentist applies a thin coating of sealant like paint on the surfaces of the tooth that come into contact with food. A regular routine of brushing and flossing is effective in preventing tooth decay, but there are some hard-to-reach places between and behind teeth that increase the risk of cavities. The practice of sealing teeth offers additional protection that prevents food from turning into decay in those areas that are inconvenient to reach through brushing and flossing. Molars are especially good candidates for sealant.

WHEN IS SEALANT NEEDED?

Children and adolescents are the best candidates for sealant application. Because younger people are more likely to develop tooth decay in their molars and premolars, they benefit significantly from sealant. Children are also less likely to brush efficiently enough to prevent all tooth decay.

Adults whose teeth are vulnerable to decay, such as those with fillings and existing decay, also benefit from the use of sealant. Any uneven surface of the tooth can lead to food getting trapped and causing tooth decay.
