Dental Sealants
in Clifton NJ
Guard vulnerable tooth surfaces against decay with protective coatings. Quick application provides years of cavity prevention.
What Are Dental Sealants?
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth (molars and premolars). These teeth have deep grooves and pits where food particles and bacteria can accumulate, making them vulnerable to decay. Sealants fill these grooves with a protective barrier, preventing cavities from forming. They're especially beneficial for children but can protect adult teeth as well.
