Dental Sealants

Herrick Dental protects teeth with dental sealants.

Dental sealants are thin covers that are used to protect smiles from harmful bacteria that forms within the pits and grooves of teeth.

On guard against tooth decay.

Dental sealants are placed on the molars - the teeth in the back of a patient's smile. Food particles often collect in this hard-to-reach area of the mouth, leading to the development of cavities. By applying a thin dental sealant, we create a smooth surface that keeps food specks out of the grooves and pits of molar teeth.

The benefits of dental sealants.

• Prevent cavities in younger patients
• Provide a shield against bacteria build-up
• Maintain the integrity of tooth structure
• Protect teeth from decay and degrade

Dental sealants are recommended for children and young patients. A durable treatment, they significantly reduce the chance of developing cavities for years!
