Dental Sealants Near You
Dental sealants are often provided for children as a boosted protection from cavities for their molars. We at Key Dental Clinic provide dental sealants in downtown Vancouver to help reduce the risk of cavities in all of our patients.
What Benefits Do Dental Sealants Provide?
- Preventing Cavities – Sealants protect the deep grooves and fissures in your molars where plaque and food particles often get trapped, significantly reducing the risk of tooth decay.
- Maintaining Oral Health – By preventing cavities, sealants help you maintain healthier teeth, which means fewer fillings, less drilling, and overall better oral health.
- Ideal for Kids and Teens – Children and teenagers are particularly prone to cavities, making them ideal candidates for sealants. Still, adults without cavities or fillings in their molars can also enjoy the benefits.
Dental Sealants Procedure
- Consultation – We begin with an examination to determine if dental sealants are a good option for you or your child.
- Cleaning – Before applying the sealant, we will thoroughly clean and dry the teeth to ensure the best possible adhesion.
- Preparation – A specialized gel is used on the chewing surfaces of the teeth to facilitate strong bonding of the sealant. The gel is removed, and the teeth are dried once more.
- Application – The dentist carefully paints the sealant material onto the tooth surface, ensuring it covers all the grooves and pits.
- Curing – A special curing light is used to ensure the sealant solidifies, making it durable and ready to protect your teeth from the very first moment.
- Final Check – The dentist will perform their final checks to make sure your bite feels comfortable.
