Dental Sealants

A dental sealant is a tooth-colored or clear plastic material that our dentists can apply to the chewing surfaces of the back molars, where tooth decay occurs most often. A dental sealant in Oxford, Michigan, helps to prevent decay by encasing the grooves and pits of the chewing surfaces and sealing out any germs and food that could cause decay. Sealants should be placed on the back molars as soon as they erupt, which usually occurs around the age of 12. Please call Oxford Lakes Dental Care at 248-628-2540 for more information on how sealants can help maintain your and your children’s oral health. Dr. Daniel Sahutske and Dr. Donna Sahutske look forward to seeing you.
