We know children do not always brush their teeth as well as they should. The back teeth are often hard to clean, with their deep grooves. As bacteria forms and more acids make contact with the tooth’s surface, plaque forms and eventually leads to decay. Any amount of damage requires a filling or crown. We recommend an application of a dental sealant for children’s and adolescents’ permanent teeth to help preserve them for a lifetime. This is a quick and easy treatment.
Every molar is cleaned and a thin application of the sealant is given to each tooth. It is clear or white and therefore invisible. Dr. Bielawski uses a curing light to bond the application to teeth. No shots, drills, or tooth removal is necessary. It takes only a few minutes and is totally painless. This is a very effective preventative measure to help young patients keep their permanent teeth.
