Fissure Sealants

We are delighted to offer Fissure Sealants as part of our commitment to providing comprehensive and preventive dental care. At Smile Dental Art Centre, we believe in staying at the forefront of dental technology and techniques to ensure the optimal oral health of our patients.

Fissure Sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, particularly the molars and premolars. These teeth have deep grooves and fissures that can be challenging to clean effectively with regular brushing. Fissure Sealants act as a barrier, preventing food particles and bacteria from getting trapped in these crevices and reducing the risk of cavities.

Fissure sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars. These teeth often have deep grooves and pits (fissures) that can trap food particles and bacteria, leading to cavities. Fissure sealants create a barrier, preventing food and bacteria from accumulating in these fissures, reducing the risk of decay.

Yes, fissure sealants are suitable for both children and adults. They are typically applied to children’s permanent molars as soon as they erupt to protect them from decay. However, adults with deep fissures and high cavity risk can also benefit from getting fissure sealants.

No, the application of fissure sealants is a quick and painless procedure. It does not involve any drilling or anesthesia. The tooth surface is thoroughly cleaned, and the sealant material is applied as a liquid and then hardened using a special curing light.

Fissure sealants can last for several years with proper care. However, their longevity can vary depending on factors such as the patient’s oral hygiene practices, the wear on the sealant from chewing, and other individual factors. Your dentist will regularly check the sealants during routine check-ups and may reapply them if necessary.
