Protect the Teeth Cavities Target Most
Dental sealants are a thin protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth, where cavities most often start. The sealant bonds into the grooves of the tooth, creating a smooth surface that's easier to keep clean and harder for food and bacteria to get trapped in.
