Dental Sealants

Protect Your Smile with Sealants

At Waverly Dental we offer our patients dental sealants. A dental sealant is an acrylic-like material that helps shield the teeth’s chewing surfaces from decay-causing bacteria. They are a cost-effective way to help patients – particularly children – control decay in certain areas. Sealants are designed to protect only the pit and fissure areas of molars and cannot be applied to the surfaces between teeth where decay often forms. These teeth must be cleaned daily by flossing.
