Pits and Fissures Sealant: Protecting Your Child’s Teeth from Cavities
At Royal Dental Care®, we prioritize preventive care to help your child maintain a healthy smile. Our Pits and Fissures Sealant treatment is an effective and non-invasive way to shield your child’s teeth from decay, particularly the chewing surfaces of molars, which are more prone to cavities due to their deep grooves.
What Are Pits and Fissures Sealants?
Sealants are thin, durable, and protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars. They act as a barrier to block food particles and bacteria from settling in grooves and causing decay.
Key Features Include:
- Quick and Painless Application: The procedure is non-invasive and takes just a few minutes per tooth.
- Durable Protection: Offers long-lasting prevention against cavities.
- Safe for Kids: Made with biocompatible materials, ensuring safety and effectiveness.
Benefits of Pits and Fissures Sealants
- Cavity Prevention: Reduces the risk of decay by sealing grooves where food particles and bacteria often get trapped.
- Cost-Effective: Saves money by preventing costly restorative treatments like fillings or extractions.
- Comfortable and Quick: A painless, efficient treatment that fits into a routine dental visit.
- Peace of Mind for Parents: Ensures your child’s teeth are well-protected from cavities.
How Are Sealants Applied?
- Cleaning the Teeth
- The tooth surface is thoroughly cleaned to remove any plaque or debris.
- Preparing the Surface
- A special solution is applied to help the sealant adhere to the tooth.
- Application of the Sealant
- The liquid sealant is painted directly onto the grooves of the tooth.
- Hardening
- A curing light hardens the sealant, creating a durable protective layer.
