Dental Sealants at the Dentist

By Regency Dental Group Includes video

Dental sealants are protective coatings we put in areas that are especially prone to cavities. They’re usually covered by insurance and only take a few minutes to apply. It’s best to put sealants on permanent molars as soon as they erupt. But since they’re not permanent, you might need occasional touch-ups and have to avoid really sticky foods that can pull them off of your teeth. Let's talk about what to expect when getting a sealant placed at the dentist!
