What are fissure sealants?
Fissure sealants are a simple way to keep your teeth safe from cavities. Think of them as a protective shield. Like molars and premolars, your back teeth have tiny grooves and dips that are hard to clean, making them a favourite spot for food bits and germs to hide. Sealants are clear, plastic coatings that fill in these tiny grooves on your teeth.
Once applied, they stop food and germs from getting in, making your teeth much easier to clean. It’s a quick, pain-free process that’s really effective, especially for kids and teens, in stopping cavities before they start. With fissure sealants, you’re taking a big step towards keeping your teeth healthy and cavity-free.

What are the benefits of dental fissure sealants?
Fissure sealants offer several key benefits that make them essential to dental care. Firstly, they act as a protective shield for your teeth, effectively blocking out bacteria and food particles that lead to decay. This is especially important for the grooves and dips in your back teeth, which are difficult to clean thoroughly with brushing alone.
The application process is straightforward, non-invasive, and pain-free, making it an ideal preventive measure for all ages, particularly for children and teenagers who are more susceptible to cavities.
Sealants also provide long-lasting protection, potentially saving time and money on future dental treatments. By choosing fissure sealants, you’re investing in a proactive approach to maintaining oral health and preserving your natural teeth.
