Dental sealants are a widely recognized preventive measure against tooth decay, particularly beneficial for children. They act as a barrier, protecting the enamel from plaque and acids. Experts recommend sealants for children's permanent molars and premolars as soon as these teeth come in. This means that sealants can be applied to children's teeth starting from the age of 6 up to the age of 16. They are known to be safe and effective, and can significantly reduce the risk of cavities when applied correctly and maintained with regular dental care.
Dental Sealants are excellent in cavity prevention. We recommend placing dental sealants on all molars and premolars.

If done correctly dental sealants will protect the teeth from getting cavities in the deep grooves on the top of the teeth.
