What are dental sealants?

Protective coatings done by Think Dental Group in Flushing, New York for teeth are an excellent way to prevent cavities and tooth decay. Dental sealants are thin, clear, plastic coatings placed on the surface of your teeth that are designed to help protect your pearly whites from plaque and acids.

Our dentists at Think Dental Group in Flushing, New York recommend that children get dental sealants for their permanent molars and premolars from the ages of 6 to 14 since these are the most cavity-prone years of their lives.

That does not, however, mean that adults can not benefit from sealants. Plenty of adults are great candidates for dental sealants, especially those who are more prone to having cases of tooth decay.
