Dental Sealants
The standard approach to protect your teeth from decaying and rotting is to keep up with high levels or oral and dental hygiene. This means making sure that you brush your teeth twice daily, floss after every meal, and visit your dentist on a regular basis for routine checks. Tooth sealants are another way that you can protect your teeth from decay.
What are Sealants?
Just imagine how every other type of sealant would work, and you generally have the right idea about tooth sealants. They seal the teeth so that rotting can’t occur. The molars in the back of your mouth are hard to reach and can’t always be brushed as thoroughly so this would be a great reason to consider sealants. You are in a rush a lot of the time so you don’t know if you really brush your teeth as thoroughly as you know you should. Again, this is another great time for sealants.
Sealants are designed to keep bacteria, tartar and a buildup of plaque from hitting your teeth. Sometimes cracks and fissures can happen within the teeth and this is when bacteria gets in and rots things from the inside out. Sealants can help to prevent this, and has proven to be a way to combat wear and tear on your teeth.
The good thing about dental sealants is that the entire process is clean and easy, but also that everything can be customized to your exact, desired specifications. You can choose to have all of your back teeth sealed, or just a few teeth done individually. The entire treatment is flexible, and this is why it is rapidly growing in popularity.
Invisible Protection Against Decay
On top of this flexibility, the sealants are virtually impossible to see, and don’t add or take anything away from your natural teeth. Most people forget that they even have sealants protecting their teeth. When cared for properly, they can last for up to ten years, but this usually only occurs when proper dental hygiene is exercised. Fissures and cracks can happen in the sealants, but with regular inspections from ProSmile Dental, you can have these potential cracks spotted and stopped in the earliest stages in order to prevent any further issues.
