Dental Fissure Sealants

Dental fissure sealants are a preventive dental treatment that involves applying a thin protective coating to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, particularly the molars and premolars. These teeth have deep grooves and fissures, also known as pits and fissures, which can be difficult to clean effectively with regular brushing alone.

Our clinic is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and adheres to strict sterilization protocols, ensuring your safety and comfort throughout your visit.

Who Can Benefit from Dental Fissure Sealants?

Dental fissure sealants are particularly beneficial for children and teenagers who may have difficulty effectively cleaning their back teeth due to the deep grooves and pits. However, adults can also benefit from sealants, especially if their molars and premolars have deep fissures that are prone to decay.


Here's an overview of the dental fissure sealant process:

Cleaning: Before applying the sealant, the dental professional will thoroughly clean the tooth to remove any debris, plaque, or bacteria. Tooth Preparation: The tooth is then isolated and dried to ensure proper bonding of the sealant. Sometimes, a mild etching solution is applied to the tooth's surface to create a rougher texture, which enhances the adhesion of the sealant.
