At Fuller Smiles Northridge, we emphasize the importance of proactive dental care. Dental sealants are a key component of our preventative strategy, offering a robust defense against tooth decay. Suitable for patients at any stage of life, these sealants are especially advantageous for younger individuals, effectively safeguarding the deep grooves of their molars from food and plaque. Protect your child’s teeth with our reliable dental sealants in Northridge for lasting oral health.
The application of dental sealants at Fuller Smiles Northridge is a straightforward, non-invasive procedure that can be completed quickly, often within a single appointment. Our process includes a thorough cleaning, followed by the application of a special solution to prepare the tooth surface. The sealant is then applied to the enamel, where it bonds and hardens rapidly, creating a strong protective layer. Trust Fuller Smiles for durable and effective dental sealants in Northridge that last for years.
With proper care, dental sealants can protect for many years, enduring the rigors of daily chewing, and can be easily reapplied as needed. They represent an economical and effective way to prevent the onset of cavities, potentially reducing the future need for more complex dental procedures. At Fuller Smiles Northridge, we advocate for including sealants in a holistic dental care regimen, complementing regular home care and dental check-ups.

Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars to prevent tooth decay. They seal off grooves, preventing food and bacteria from causing cavities.
While dental sealants are often applied to children's molars, they can be beneficial for adults as well, especially those with deep grooves in their teeth or a history of cavities.
With proper care, dental sealants can last several years, providing long-term protection against cavities. They can be easily reapplied if needed during regular check-ups.
Dental sealants require minimal maintenance. Maintaining good oral hygiene and visiting your dentist regularly for check-ups and cleanings will help ensure they remain effective.
