Frequently Asked Questions
What are dental sealants, and who should get them?
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars to prevent cavities. They are recommended for children and adults, especially those with deep grooves or a history of tooth decay. Our Sunny Isles Beach dental sealants offer a simple way to keep your teeth healthy.
How long do dental sealants last?
Dental sealants can last up to 10 years with proper care. Our Sunny Isles Beach dentist will monitor them during regular checkups to ensure they remain intact and effective.
Are sealants only for children?
No, sealants are beneficial for both children and adults. While kids often get sealants as a preventive measure, adults with deep grooves or sensitivity issues can also benefit. Our Sunny Isles Beach dental sealants provide protection at any age.
Can sealants help with sensitive teeth?
Yes, dental sealants can help reduce sensitivity by providing a barrier that covers exposed dentin. If you experience sensitivity in your molars, our dentist can assess whether this treatment is right for you.
How are sealants applied? Does it hurt?
The application process is quick and painless. After a thorough cleaning, the sealant material is brushed onto the tooth surface and hardened with a special light. Most patients don’t feel any discomfort during the procedure.
What insurance do you accept for sealants?
We work with many major insurance providers and offer flexible payment options for dental sealants. Our team will help you navigate your coverage and provide an estimate before treatment. Contact our office for more details.
Do I still need to brush and floss if I have sealants?
Yes, sealants are an additional layer of protection, but they don’t replace good oral hygiene. Brushing twice a day, flossing, and regular dental visits are essential for maintaining your oral health, even with sealants.
