What to know about dental sealants
Dental sealants are a thin, protective coating that can be made from plastic or other dental materials. They are designed to adhere easily to the chewing surface of your back teeth. This treatment is suitable for patients of all ages, but it is particularly common for children. You can conveniently have this treatment done during your routine dental cleaning and exam. To learn more about dental sealants and to add it to your upcoming visit, please give us a call at (817) 374 - 4767.

What to expect from a dental sealant treatment at our office
A sealant can be thought of as a small plastic filling. However, numbing is typically not required since tooth enamel lacks nerves.
We’ll start by examining the tooth or teeth to be sealed. If decay is found, we’ll remove it.
Next, we’ll apply a solution that helps the sealing material better adhere to your tooth surface
Time for the sealant! We’ll paint it on the tooth and use a special curing light as needed. That’s it!
We Make It Convenient For Your Smile To Be Exceptional.
We plan around your busy schedule and even offer emergency dental services if the need arises.
