Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are used to prevent tooth decay once children start getting their permanent adult teeth. Adult teeth contain pits and fissures where food can get caught, and this could cause tooth decay. Dental sealants can be used to fill in those gaps to prevent any tooth decay. The process of applying dental sealants is simple and painless.
Fluoride
Fluoride is a mineral that helps strengthen tooth enamel. Fluoride treatments can help prevent tooth decay and cavities, and they can be administered two to four times per year. Your child can start getting fluoride treatments as soon as their first tooth appears.
