Dental Sealants and Cavities

Daily brushing and flossing help remove food particles from between the teeth, however, the pits and grooves of the teeth make it difficult to keep the mouth clean. This is where dental sealants that Dr. Amit Pandya, DDS offers as a service benefit the patient. Dental sealants are safe in protecting against tooth decay, especially in children, because the likelihood of developing cavities in the chewing surfaces of teeth at a young age is high.


Children and adults benefit from sealants, but the earlier they are applied to the teeth, the better. Dental sealants are a thin and protective coating (made from plastic and other dental materials) that is painted on the chewing surfaces of teeth to keep out bacteria. Sealing these teeth as soon as possible will keep them cavity-free from the very first application. The process for receiving dental sealants is quick and painless.
