New London Family Dentistry & Implants

Dental sealants are thin layers of resin that are used to help prevent decay on the surface of your molars. They also help reduce the chance of getting cavities. Dental sealants are usually placed on the molars, as these are the teeth most likely to get cavities and suffer from other harmful forms of tooth decay. The material of the sealant will bond to the groove of your teeth, forming a barrier between the tooth’s enamel and bacteria, plaque, and other harmful agents. We are happy to place sealants on both adults’ and children’s teeth.
