Dental Sealants

A major step in preserving a healthy mouth is preventing tooth decay, and preventative dental sealants can offer important protection.

A dental sealant is an acrylic-like material that helps shield out decay-causing bacteria from the chewing surfaces of teeth.

Our dental team recommendation dental sealants on the patient’s susceptibility to tooth decay and how the teeth were shaped when they originally formed below the gum. Though there is no specific age at which sealants are indicated, we often recommend that the best time to apply them is when the the first permanent back teeth, also known as six-year molars, begin to appear.

Our office serves patients throughout South Florida including Deerfield Beach, Boca Raton, Pompano Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Coconut Creek, and Coral Springs.
