Dental Sealants in Burbank
Dental sealants provide an added layer of protection against cavities by sealing deep grooves and pits on the chewing surfaces of teeth. At Green California Dental Group in Burbank, dental sealants are used as a preventive treatment to help reduce the risk of tooth decay, especially in areas that are difficult to clean with brushing alone.
Targeted Prevention for Vulnerable Tooth Surfaces
Protective Coatings Designed to Help Prevent Tooth Decay
The back teeth, including molars and premolars, are more prone to cavities due to their shape and location. Dental sealants act as a barrier that helps block bacteria and food particles from settling into these grooves, supporting long-term oral health.
What’s Included
Dental Sealants in Burbank
Sealants for Molars and Premolars
Sealants are most commonly applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth, where cavities are more likely to develop. These areas benefit from added protection due to their deep grooves.
Preventive Care for Children and Adults
While sealants are often associated with pediatric dentistry, they can also benefit adults who are at higher risk for decay or have deep grooves in their teeth.
Quick, Non-Invasive Application
Dental sealants are applied directly to clean, dry teeth and hardened in place, creating a smooth protective surface without altering natural tooth structure.
