Dental sealants offer a simple, effective way to help protect teeth from cavities—especially in the back molars, where deep grooves make it harder to keep plaque and food particles from building up. At Woolf Dental, we often recommend sealants as part of a preventive care plan for children.
Sealants are applied as a thin, protective coating that bonds to the chewing surface of the tooth. The process is quick, painless, and requires no numbing or drilling. Once in place, the sealant acts as a barrier, keeping bacteria and acids out of the areas most vulnerable to cavities.
