About Dental Sealants at Luna Dental
Dental sealants are a preventative measure to protect against tooth decay, particularly in the molars and premolars, where the risk is highest due to the grooves and crevices that trap food and bacteria. When applied, the sealant quickly bonds into the depressions and grooves of the teeth, forming a protective shield over the enamel of each tooth. This helps prevent cavity-causing bacteria and particles from settling in these hard-to-clean areas, significantly reducing the risk of cavities and the need for extensive dental work in the future.
At Luna Dental, we apply a thin, resin coating directly onto the chewing surfaces of your teeth. This barrier effectively shields the enamel from plaque and acids, playing a crucial role in maintaining oral health.
Why Dental Sealants are Beneficial
Sealants are a simple yet effective method of preventing cavities, especially in children and teenagers, who are more prone to decay. The process is quick and painless and can safeguard teeth for many years. Adults can also benefit from sealants, especially if they have deep grooves in their teeth and no fillings.
Regular check-ups at Luna Dental ensure that the sealants remain intact and continue to protect against decay.
