Sealants
Sealants are a common preventive treatment in dentistry. Some
teeth have fine grooves or pits that accumulate plaque, not
because the person doesn't brush, but because the grooves are too
narrow to allow even one bristle into them. When plaque
accumulates, it can lead to cavities and other types of tooth
decay. To apply sealants, a plastic material is brushed onto the
tooth, filling these narrow grooves and preventing the
cavity-causing buildup. Sealants make healthy teeth possible.
The
benefits of sealants include:
Protection against decay -
Sealants effectively seal off the crevices of the teeth, reducing
the risk of cavities and decay.
Reduced future
treatments - They serve as a proactive step in preventing the need
for future dental treatments, such as fillings or root canals.
Safe
and painless: The application of sealants is a quick, painless,
and non-invasive procedure that helps protect your teeth for many
years.
