Dental sealants are used to block the causes of cavities. Application of sealants involves a painless process in which plastic is coated on teeth, typically the molars, located in the back of the mouth. Coatings of dental sealants protect the teeth from buildup of plaque and from sugars, acids and other harmful substances that can erode tooth enamel and damage teeth with decay and cavities. Find out how you can protect your teeth with effective dental sealants. Children, teenagers and young adults may benefit most from dental sealants, but they can be beneficial for adults, too.
