Dental sealants are for everyone!
If you visited the dentist as a child, chances are you likely received dental sealants to help protect your baby teeth and promote the growth of healthy adult teeth. Dental sealants are commonly used as a preventative and strengthening measure for children’s teeth.
However, adults can also regularly receive dental sealants, especially following fillings and abrasions that weaken the enamel of the tooth.
Dental sealants are designed to be long-lasting but can become prematurely worn down if you eat too many acidic foods, chew ice, or fail to practice regular dental hygiene.
