General Health Information

A sealant is an invisible but protective coating that prevents cavities
from forming. This protective layer is basically like adding heavy
armor to the enamel of teeth and will not allow bacteria or food to
penetrate and cause cavities for up to five years. Sealants are
recommended by pediatric dental health
professions as a way of protecting teeth so that children enter into
adulthood with a full set of beautiful white teeth free from cavities.
Nearly one-third of all school-aged children have sealants protecting
their teeth.
