PIT AND FISSURE SEALANTS
Dental sealants serve as a protective barrier against cavities. They are a plastic coating typically applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (premolars and molars), where decay is most common.
Why are dental sealants placed on teeth?
Dental sealants are placed on teeth to provide a protective layer that prevents cavities. They are especially beneficial for the chewing surfaces of back teeth, where pits and grooves can trap food and bacteria, making them more susceptible to decay. By sealing these areas, dental sealants help to protect the teeth from decay and extend their longevity.
The chewing surfaces of teeth feature grooves and fissures that are highly prone to decay. These fissures can be quite deep and narrow, often narrower than a toothbrush bristle, making them hard to clean. Food and plaque can accumulate in these areas, where bacteria produce acids that erode the enamel and cause cavities. Dental sealants offer additional protection by covering these grooves with a smooth surface, making them easier to clean and reducing the risk of decay.
