What Are Dental Sealants?
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings made from BPA-free resin. They are applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars and premolars) — where cavities are most likely to form.
The sealant flows into the natural grooves of the teeth, creating a smooth, protective barrier that prevents food, bacteria, and plaque from getting trapped.
Who Should Get Dental Sealants?
Sealants are most effective when applied soon after the permanent molars come in — usually between ages 6–14. However, they can also benefit:
- Cavity-prone children or teens
- Adults with deep grooves in molars
- Patients with limited oral hygiene ability
- Kids with a history of early cavities
Benefits of Dental Sealants
- Reduces risk of cavities by up to 80%
- Quick, painless, and non-invasive
- Safe for children, teens, and adults
- Long-lasting protection — up to 5–10 years
- Saves time and money by avoiding future dental work
How Are Sealants Applied?
- Teeth Cleaning – We thoroughly clean the tooth surface
- Tooth Preparation – A special solution is applied to help the sealant bond
- Sealant Placement – The liquid resin is painted onto the grooves of the tooth
- Curing – A blue light hardens the sealant in seconds
No shots, no drilling — just quick, effective protection in a single visit.
FAQs – Dental Sealants in Syosset, Oyster Bay, NY
Do sealants hurt?
Not at all! Sealants are completely painless and require no numbing or drilling.
How long do sealants last?
Sealants can last 5–10 years, depending on eating habits and oral hygiene. We’ll check them during regular exams and reapply if needed.
Are sealants only for kids?
No. While sealants are most common in children, adults with deep grooves or a history of decay may also benefit.
