Sealants
Dental Sealants in South Bend, IN
Dental sealants are a great way to provide an extra layer of protection to your back teeth. While most commonly applied to children’s teeth, adults can also benefit from the dental sealant procedure. Brushing and flossing can remove the vast majority of food particles, however, it’s relatively common for debris to get trapped in the harder-to-reach ridges and grooves of your teeth. It's for this reason that our dentist in South Bend, IN, may recommend sealants.

Cavity Prevention
Most cavities form in the back teeth, also known as the molars. The good news is that our dentist can seals the tiny grooves and divots on the chewing surfaces of your molars where bacteria like to hide. While sealants can greatly reduce your risk of cavities, it's important to remember that they're not a replacement for practicing good oral hygiene. You'll still need to brush your teeth twice a day and floss once a day to ensure a healthy smile.
