Prevent Cavities with Protective Treatment at Hale Wellness Dental Studio
At Hale Wellness Dental Studio, we believe in taking a proactive approach to oral health. One of the most effective and minimally invasive preventative services we provide is sealants. These protective coatings are especially valuable for children, teens, and adults who are more susceptible to developing cavities in their back teeth.
What Are Sealants?
A Simple Solution to Help Prevent Tooth Decay
Sealants are thin, tooth-colored resin coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars. These back teeth have natural grooves and pits that can trap food, plaque, and bacteria. Brushing doesn’t always reach deep into those areas, making them more vulnerable to decay. Sealants work by creating a smooth, protective barrier that helps block out debris and bacteria—reducing the risk of cavities.
Who Can Benefit from Sealants?
- Children and Teens – Once permanent molars come in, typically between ages 6–12
- Adults – Ideal for patients with deep grooves or early signs of enamel wear
- Orthodontic Patients – Braces can make cleaning more difficult; sealants offer added protection
Benefits of Sealants
- Cavity Prevention – Reduces the risk of decay by sealing out harmful particles
- Comfortable & Fast – The procedure is non-invasive and pain-free
- Durable Protection – Sealants can last several years with proper care
- Cost-Effective – Helps avoid the need for future fillings or dental restorations
What to Expect During the Procedure
- We clean and dry the tooth thoroughly
- A mild etching gel is applied and rinsed
- The sealant is brushed on and cured with a special light
- The bite is checked for comfort and function
