Protect Your Tooth Surface With an Acrylic Coat
Fight tooth decay on the biting surface of your chewing teeth with the simple application of dental sealants.
AuSable Family Dental, P.C. can apply a tooth-colored acrylic coating that seals the deep depressions and grooves in your teeth and protects your enamel from plaque and acids.
These grooves can be difficult to clean thoroughly with a toothbrush, even when you brush regularly. Sealants create a protective barrier over the chewing surfaces of back teeth, helping keep food particles and bacteria from settling into hard-to-reach areas. They work alongside daily brushing, flossing, and routine dental visits as part of a preventive care plan.
Get Long-Lasting Treatments for Children
Dental sealing takes only a few minutes to apply to each tooth, and they hold up well under the force of normal biting and chewing. Seals last for several years and can then be reapplied as needed.
Children can benefit greatly from this easy treatment. Call us or visit us to learn more.
A dental visit gives our team a chance to check whether sealants may be appropriate and make sure each tooth is ready for treatment. We can also monitor the sealants during regular checkups and recommend reapplication if they become worn or chipped. Sealants are one part of preventive dental care; brushing twice daily, flossing, and keeping up with checkups remain important for protecting your child’s smile.
AuSable Family Dental, P.C. welcomes patients of all ages and takes time to help families understand their dental care. Contact our Grayling office to ask about dental sealants or request an appointment.
