Dental sealants · Mount Dora

A minute per tooth. Years of protection.

Sealants shield the deep grooves in your child's molars where toothbrush bristles simply can't reach. No drilling, no numbing, no discomfort — and covered by most PPO plans.

Why they work

Cavities start in the grooves.

Sealants for kids and teens at your Mount Dora family dentist — the simplest preventive win there is.

Grooves are unbrushable

The pits in a molar are narrower than a single bristle. Sealants fill them so the surface can actually be cleaned.

Placed in minutes

Clean, dry, paint, cure. About a minute per tooth, with nothing that feels like a dental procedure.

Checked every visit

We inspect sealants at each cleaning and touch up any that have chipped or worn — no extra appointment.

Usually insurance-covered

Most PPO plans cover sealants on children's permanent molars. We verify benefits before placing them.

Timing

When to seal which teeth.

  1. 01

    Age ~6

    First permanent molars arrive behind the baby teeth — the highest-value teeth to seal.

  2. 02

    Age ~12

    Second permanent molars come in at the back and get the same protection.

  3. 03

    Premolars

    Sealed case by case when the grooves are deep or your child is cavity-prone.

  4. 04

    Maintenance

    Checked at every six-month cleaning and reapplied whenever they wear down.
