🦷 Dental Sealants – Protection for Cavity-Prone Teeth

😁 Want to protect your child’s teeth from cavities?

Hi, today we’re talking about a simple, painless treatment that can help kids and teens avoid tooth decay — dental sealants!

🛡️ What Are Dental Sealants?

Sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars), where most cavities occur. They block out food and bacteria, making it easier to keep teeth clean.

🦠 Why Do Kids Need Sealants?

Molars have deep grooves that trap food and germs

Even with brushing, it's hard to clean every corner

Sealants help prevent cavities before they start

⏳ When Should Sealants Be Applied?

Around age 6 (when first molars come in)

Again around age 12 (when second molars erupt)

Teenagers and adults can also benefit if they have deep grooves or are cavity-prone

✅ Benefits of Sealants

Painless and quick procedure

Cost-effective cavity prevention

Lasts several years with good oral care

No drilling or anesthesia needed
