Dental sealants

Dr. Romas routinely places dental sealants because they are an extremely effective way to prevent cavities in children. Sealants fill deep fissures or pits in teeth, especially molars, where bacteria can accumulate and cause cavities. Applying sealants does not require the removal of any tooth structure so it is a safe, painless procedure. Paired with routine cleanings, fluoride treatments, solid at-home oral hygiene, and a healthy diet, cavities can be a thing of the past.
