enamel.\u00a0 In the back of the mouth, you will find these larger, flatter teeth that are difficult to clean.\u00a0 The molars are the site of four out of five dental decay cases.\u00a0 Often, decay-causing bacteria live in the nooks and crannies of molar chewing surfaces (pits and fissures).\u00a0 It is extremely difficult to reach these areas with a regular toothbrush.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A pediatric dentist may coat additional teeth (for example, bicuspid teeth) if a child is at high risk for tooth decay.\u00a0 It serves as a barrier, preventing food particles and oral bacteria from accessing the vulnerable enamel of the teeth.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is important to understand that dental sealants do not directly improve the health of the teeth, and they should not be used in place of fluoride supplements (if the dentist has recommended them) or general oral care.\u00a0 A sealant is generally less expensive, less uncomfortable, and more aesthetically pleasing than a dental filling.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dental sealants come in a variety of types, but most are made of liquid plastic.\u00a0 Before painting sealant on targeted teeth, the pediatric dentist must thoroughly clean and prepare the molars.\u00a0 Sealants can be bright pink when wet and clear when dry.\u00a0 The dentist is able to see that all pits and fissures have been thoroughly coated because of the bright pink coloring.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After every tooth has been coated, the sealant is either left to self-harden or exposed to blue spectrum natural light for several seconds (depending on the particular brand&#8217;s chemical composition).\u00a0 Using this specialized light, the sealant is hardened and the plastic is cured.\u00a0 This creates a thin layer of durable, hard, clear sealant.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The &#8220;sealing&#8221; procedure can easily be performed in one office visit and is completely

determined by the oral habits of the child.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Permanent molars should be sealed as soon as they emerge, according to pediatric dentists.\u00a0 The sealant can sometimes be applied prior to the full development of the permanent molar.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is important to monitor the sealant&#8217;s health on a biannual basis.\u00a0 Tooth decay can be caused by food particles trapped against the enamel if the seal begins to lift off.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact your pediatric
