Dr. Mohamed provides dental sealants to help protect your teeth from cavities. Sealants are a type of preventive treatment and are applied to the teeth to form a protective coating that can block out decaycausing factors such as bacteria, plaque and food debris. To schedule an appointment with our dentist and learn more about the benefits of dental sealants in Fair Oaks, California, call Fair Oaks Smile at 916- 536-9410.
When left untreated, bacteria can infect your teeth, causing tension in the tooth and affecting your ability to eat and speak properly. To help eliminate the need for extra costs associated with restorative treatments, we recommend dental sealants. A dental sealant is applied as a thin, protective coating to block out bacteria from damaging your teeth and is highly recommended for its ability to last for many years.
During treatment, a gel is carefully painted on the tooth to prep it for the sealant. Shortly afterward, our dentist will apply a smooth and natural-looking sealant over your tooth. After application, the sealant will quickly harden over the tooth and help form a physical barrier against harmful germs, effectively preserving your smile from unwanted damage.
Sealants involve a simple, non-invasive application process and are often recommended to help protect teeth from future decay. Both children and adults may receive dental sealants to help them preserve and maintain their smiles. In addition to receiving a sealant, we encourage patients to continue maintaining proper oral hygiene and visit with us for regular checkups.
