Rockhampton Fissure Sealants
Fissure sealants are a safe and painless way of protecting your children’s teeth from tooth decay. It is a plastic coating which covers the chewing surfaces of the back adult teeth. The sealant forms a hard shield that keeps food and bacteria from getting into the tiny grooves in the teeth.
Studies have shown that dental sealants are effective at preventing dental decay. Both children and adults can benefit from sealant application.
Overall, pit-and-fissure sealants are effective as long as they are applied properly, monitored and replaced when needed.
