Description

Description of Sealants:

$30.00 per Tooth

Dental sealant is a thin, plastic coating painted on the chewing surfaces of teeth — usually the back teeth (baby molars, the adult premolars and molars) — to prevent tooth decay. The sealant quickly bonds into the depressions and grooves of the teeth, forming a protective shield over the enamel of each tooth. This shield makes it so food and bacteria slide right off the tooth instead of getting stuck in the biting surface.
