Dental sealants are a thin resin layer applied to the chewing surfaces of the molars to prevent your teeth from getting cavities. Once they’re applied, they keep bacteria and food from settling into the grooves in your teeth and causing decay. As a non-invasive general dentistry service, they’re a preventive way to protect your teeth, in addition to cleanings, fluoride treatments, and regular dental exams.
Dental sealants last anywhere from 5 to 10 years before they need to be replaced, depending on your bite and oral care habits. Your Woodbury dentist can monitor your sealants during your dental check-up to ensure they stay intact and will reapply them if they start to wear down. Routine cleanings and exams preserve the integrity of your sealants and keep them functioning at their best to prevent decay.
Dental sealants are a safe and effective way to reduce the risk of tooth decay if you’re an adult. The thin resin coating shields your teeth from plaque buildup, while making them easier to clean. If you want expert guidance on sealants to ensure they continue providing protection, schedule a visit with Dr. Lynna Pillai, DMD, in Woodbury, Long Island.
Dental sealants are usually covered by insurance for children, and some plans cover adults. Checking the details of your plan is the best way to determine your out-of-pocket costs for sealants because coverage varies between insurance providers.
