Sealants Can Seal the Deal for Healthy Teeth
Sealants refers to a clear or shaded plastic material placed in the pits and grooves of children's teeth to prevent decay. The pediatric dentist/hygienist applies this invisible protector by drying and conditioning the teeth, painting on the sealant and then allowing it to harden.
The AAPD recommends sealants as an effective method for cavity prevention, especially for those children with a history of tooth decay. In addition, sealants are one of the most cost-effective means of preventing cavities.They cost less than a third of what one filling costs!
