Pit and fissure sealants are a preventive dental treatment designed to protect the natural grooves on your teeth, particularly on molars and premolars. These grooves can trap food particles and bacteria, making them challenging to clean. Sealants act as a protective barrier, keeping harmful substances away from your teeth and reducing the risk of cavities.

What Are Pit and Fissure Sealants?
Why Choose Sealants?
Our approach is simple: “Prevention is better than cure.” The necessity for pit and fissure sealants is determined during your dental check-up at Niddrie Dental Clinic. The depth and condition of your teeth’s grooves will guide our dentists in deciding whether sealants are appropriate for you.
The Application Process
One of the best parts? There’s no need for a dental drill! The application of pit and fissure sealants is quick and painless. Our dentist will thoroughly clean your tooth, allowing the sealant to flow into the grooves, effectively sealing them against decay. It’s as easy as getting your nails painted!
Can I Eat Immediately After?
Absolutely! You can enjoy your favorite meals right after your sealants are applied. There are no restrictions on your daily activities, so you can go about your day without worry.
How Long Do Sealants Last?
Pit and fissure sealants typically last between 3 to 5 years. During your regular check-ups, our dentists will evaluate the condition of the sealants. If they wear off, they can be easily reapplied, ensuring continued protection for your teeth. Remember to keep up with your six-month dental visits to maintain optimal oral health!
