Dental Sealants in Havre de Grace, MD
Protect your family’s teeth with dental sealants
Strengthen your teeth with protective sealants
Even with diligent brushing and flossing, some mouth areas are hard to reach. At Union Dental Center, we emphasize preventive care as a key component of oral health, and dental sealants are one of the most effective methods to prevent cavities and tooth decay. Our dental sealants in Havre de Grace provide extra protection for these vulnerable areas. They’re thin, plastic coatings applied onto the chewing surfaces of the back teeth.
Sealants are ideal for:
- Children and teenagers as a preventive measure against cavities
- Adults without decay or fillings in their molars
- Anyone looking to add an extra layer of protection against tooth decay
Our team uses advanced techniques to apply sealants quickly and painlessly, offering long-lasting protection. Call us at (410) 939-3950.
What dental sealants can do for you
- Act as a barrier, protecting enamel from plaque and acids
- Prevent cavities, especially in hard-to-clean back teeth
- Suitable for both children and adults to maintain dental health
- Quick, painless, and non-invasive application process
Why Dental Sealants?
- Long-Lasting Protection: Sealants can last up to 10 years with proper care, providing long-term protection against cavities.
- Simple Application: The process is quick, painless, and can be completed in one visit.
- Cost-Effective: By preventing cavities and other dental issues, sealants save money on future dental treatments.
- Ideal for Children and Adults: Sealants are especially beneficial for children who are still learning proper dental hygiene, but they are equally effective for adults.
Our skilled dentists apply dental sealants as a fast, painless procedure that involves cleaning and drying the tooth before applying a clear gel. The gel is then hardened with a special light, bonding it to the tooth to seal out decay-causing bacteria.
