Dental Fissure Sealant in Dubai

Dental Fissure Sealant

Seal deep grooves to prevent cavities in kids’ molars.

Tooth decay is a common concern in children. Dental fissure sealant treatment is a preventive dental procedure that helps protect molars and premolars from cavities.

  • Painless and quick application
  • Creates a protective shield against bacteria
  • Prevents food particles from getting trapped in grooves
  • Ideal for children and teenagers
Fissure sealant is a thin, protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to prevent decay. The deep grooves in molars and premolars can trap food particles, making them difficult to clean. This treatment provides a smooth surface that reduces the risk of cavities.

How It Works:

  • A thin layer of dental fissure sealant is applied to the tooth surface.
  • The sealant bonds with the enamel and is hardened using a special curing light.
  • This creates a protective barrier that shields teeth from bacteria and acids.
  • Prevents cavities by sealing deep grooves and pits.
  • Non-invasive and requires no drilling or anesthesia.
  • Quick and painless procedure that takes only a few minutes.
  • Long-lasting protection, reducing the need for future fillings.
  • Improves oral hygiene by making teeth easier to clean.
This treatment is suitable for:
  • Children and teenagers with newly erupted permanent molars.
  • Individuals prone to cavities or with deep grooves in their teeth.
  • Patients looking for a preventive solution to avoid future dental issues.
Those with existing cavities or decay may require treatment before getting a fissure sealant.

Before Treatment

  • The dentist examines the teeth to ensure they are decay-free.
  • The teeth are cleaned and dried to prepare for the application.

During Treatment

  • A special gel is applied to the tooth surface to help the sealant bond.
  • The sealant is painted onto the enamel and hardened with a curing light.
  • The dentist checks for proper bonding and ensures a smooth finish.

After Treatment

  • The child can resume normal eating and drinking immediately.
  • The sealant will be monitored during routine dental visits to ensure it remains intact.

Aftercare & Recovery

  • Maintain regular brushing and flossing to ensure overall oral health.
  • Avoid biting hard objects or chewing on ice to prevent damage to the sealant.
  • Schedule routine dental check-ups to monitor sealant condition.
