Fissure sealants are a type of dental sealant used to protect the teeth against cavities. They are usually made of fluoride-containing materials and are applied to the teeth by a dentist. Sealants act as a barrier to food and bacteria, which can cause cavities. Contact our clinic today to see if fissure sealants are the right treatment option for you.

Fissure Sealants
Fissure Sealants are the best preventive measure against decay since fluoride was put into the water supply.
The grooves on the biting surfaces of most molar teeth are too deep and too narrow to be completely cleaned with a toothbrush. Fissure sealing is a preventive procedure that involves the placement of a dental resin in these deep grooves to prevent the accumulation of food and decay-causing bacteria.
Fissure sealants are great in that they require no drilling, are painless, and are less expensive than fillings. We usually recommend them in younger patients at risk of tooth decay.
Fissure sealants are usually placed by the Dental Hygienist or Dental Therapist as part of our preventative program.

Crystal Downs2023-10-25From the moment my nervous little self entered after many years of no dental work due to trauma. I felt calm and in control of this situation. Josh was nothing but understanding and caring of my needs and concerns. Once my comprehensive exam was complete i was then blessed with an amazing hygienist Trish who was also very caring and understanding of my anxiety and talked me through every step she took, the way they both interacted with myself was truly an amazing experience.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
