Cavity prevention in 4 simple steps
Protecting your teeth with a dental sealant is a surprisingly simple process. Here's how it works:
- First, we'll clean your tooth and dry it carefully.
- Next, we'll apply an acid solution to roughen the tooth surface so the sealant will bond more effectively.
- We'll then clean and rinse your tooth again before painting sealant onto its surface.
- We may apply a special curing light to help harden the sealant.
