At Children's Dentistry of Elko, we believe in providing the highest standard of dental care for children in a warm and welcoming environment. One of the ways we protect your child's teeth from decay and cavities is by using dental sealants.
Dental sealants are a clear or tooth-colored plastic coating applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, where most cavities occur. They create a barrier that protects the tooth from plaque and bacteria, helping to prevent tooth decay. The application process is quick and painless and can be done in a single visit to our office.
Sealants are a highly effective way to prevent cavities in children, especially those who are at a higher risk of developing decay. They are especially useful for children with deep grooves and pits in their teeth or those who have difficulty brushing and flossing effectively.
Sealants can last for several years, but it's important to have them checked during regular dental visits to ensure they are still intact. Our dental professionals will check for any signs of wear or chipping and reapply them as necessary.
At Children's Dentistry of Elko, we are committed to helping your child achieve and maintain a healthy, beautiful smile. Schedule an appointment for dental sealants today!
