At Dedicated Dental, we’re all about prevention. Dental sealants are a quick and effective way to protect your teeth, especially molars, from cavities and decay. They’re most often used for children and teenagers, but adults with deep grooves in their teeth can also benefit. If you’re looking for a simple way to maintain your smile’s health, dental sealants are a wise choice.
Even with good brushing and flossing, it can be hard to clean every nook and cranny, especially those deep grooves in the back teeth. Sealants act as a barrier, sealing out plaque and food particles that can lead to cavities.
Here’s why patients love them:
Cavity Protection for Years
Sealants are long-lasting and help prevent tooth decay in the areas most at risk.
Great for Kids and Teens
First and second molars typically get sealed between the ages of 6 – 14, right when they’re most vulnerable to cavities.
Quick and Painless
Applying dental sealants is fast, easy, and completely painless —no drilling, no numbing, just protection.
Cost-Effective Preventive Care
Sealants help you avoid costly dental work in the future by stopping decay before it starts.

They’re thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to guard against cavities.
With proper care, sealants can last up to 5–10 years. We’ll check them during your regular exams to make sure they’re still protecting your teeth.
Sealants are typically used on molars and premolars, but in some cases, we may recommend them for other teeth with deep grooves.
