Dental sealants are a thin protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth — premolars and molars — to prevent cavities from forming in their narrow grooves and pits. According to the American Dental Association, sealants have been shown to reduce the risk of decay in molars by nearly 80%. At 3V Dental, we offer sealants for patients of all ages.

Your Visit
The tooth surface is thoroughly cleaned and dried to prepare for bonding.
A gentle acidic gel is briefly applied to create a slightly rough surface for the sealant to grip.
The liquid sealant material is painted directly onto the grooves of the tooth.
A special light hardens the sealant in seconds, bonding it securely to the tooth.
A dental sealant is a thin coating composed of plastic or other dental-grade material applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth to prevent them from decaying. Even the most careful brushing and flossing can’t always completely clean food particles from these uneven surfaces.
Sealants form a protective shield by bonding into the hard-to-reach grooves of the teeth, keeping bacteria and acids out. The CDC reports that school-age children without sealants have almost three times more cavities than those who have them.
Sealants are beneficial for all ages, but children benefit most when permanent back teeth are sealed as soon as they fully erupt. Even baby teeth can benefit from sealants to prevent early loss.
Adults with deep grooves in their molars and no existing decay or fillings are also excellent candidates. The earlier sealants are applied, the more protection they provide over a lifetime.
The process is simple, quick, and completely pain-free. The tooth is cleaned and dried, then an acidic gel is briefly applied to roughen the surface so the sealant bonds securely.
After rinsing and drying, the liquid sealant is painted onto the tooth and hardened with a curing light. The whole process takes only a few minutes per tooth.
