They are thin plastic coatings that are applied to the chewing surfaces – also known as pits and fissures – of a tooth to protect against tooth decay. Sealants help to keep bacteria and food debris away from the grooves in the chewing surfaces, thereby helping to protect them against tooth decay.
Initially applied in liquid form, the sealant flows into the pits and fissures of the teeth’s chewing surfaces. They are then hardened to become plastic coatings using a dental curing light. Dental sealants are commonly used on the back teeth or second molars, where decay frequently occurs.
The treatment works effectively on children as well as adults. It involves a simple and pain-free procedure – no drilling or removal of tooth structure is necessary. Fissure sealants form an invisible layer of protection around the tooth without introducing bulk or discomfort to the patient.
Although the entire process takes only a few minutes per tooth, the sealants in hardened form can withstand the daily rigours of chewing and biting. As long as the sealants are in place, your child’s permanent molars are no longer exposed to the risks of tooth decay.
Dental filling is both a safe and effective way to eradicate the problems caused by cavities, but some people may experience slight tooth sensitivity and pain afterwards. The good news is that in most cases, this will subside within a matter of days, and any tenderness felt is usually mild.
If you have any concerns about sensitivity, please discuss with your dentist.
