Dental Sealants in El Paso, TX

Are you looking for an easy and effective way to protect your teeth from decay and cavities? Look no further than dental sealants from Westside Dentistry in El Paso. Dental sealants are a thin, protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of your molars and premolars to prevent bacteria and food particles from getting trapped in the deep grooves and crevices of your teeth.

The Benefits of Dental Sealants

Dental sealants offer a number of benefits for both children and adults, including:

  • Protection from cavities: Dental sealants act as a barrier to prevent bacteria and food particles from settling in the deep grooves of your teeth, reducing the risk of cavities and decay.
  • Long-lasting: Dental sealants can last up to 10 years with proper care, making them a cost-effective and low-maintenance solution for protecting your teeth.
  • Easy and painless: The process of getting dental sealants is quick, easy, and painless. Your dentist will simply clean and dry your teeth, apply a special gel to prepare the surface, and then paint on the sealant. No drilling or anesthesia is required.

Who Should Get Dental Sealants?

Dental sealants are recommended for children and teens as soon as their permanent molars and premolars come in, typically around age 6 or 7. However, adults can also benefit from dental sealants, especially if they have deep grooves or a history of cavities.

How to Care for Dental Sealants

Caring for dental sealants is easy. Simply brush and floss your teeth as usual, and avoid chewing on hard objects like ice or candy to prevent damage to the sealant. Your dentist will check the condition of your dental sealants at each regular check-up and can repair or replace them as needed.
