Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of your back teeth. Molars and premolars have deep grooves and crevices that are prone to trapping food particles and bacteria, making them susceptible to decay. Dental sealants in Spokane, Washington, act as a shield, preventing cavities and preserving your beautiful smile.
How Dental Sealants Work
Sealants work like armor for your teeth. Our dentist thoroughly cleans and dries the teeth before applying the sealant material. Using a special light, they harden the sealant, forming a durable barrier that keeps harmful substances away from your tooth enamel.
Sealants are for Everyone
Dental sealants are a boon for all ages. Children and teenagers, in particular, benefit from sealants as they learn proper oral hygiene habits. However, adults can also benefit from sealants, especially if they have deep grooves on their molars that are challenging to clean.
A Quick and Painless Procedure
Getting dental sealants is a breeze! The application is a quick and painless process that can be done during a regular dental check-up. It does not involve any drilling or anesthesia, making it a stress-free experience for all.
Long-Lasting Protection
Once applied, dental sealants can last for several years with proper care. Dr. Safina LeClair checks their condition during regular visits and can reapply them if needed to maintain optimal protection.
