Dental Sealants in Denver

Sealants are typically done on young children to adolescents and are perfromed as a preventative measure to help stop cavities from forming. A thin composite material is placed on the top surface of the tooth into the fissures to prevent bacteria and acid from pooling in high-risk areas. This procedure is very straightforward and no numbing agent is needed.

At Cherry Creek Family Dentistry, we recommend sealants as part of a comprehensive approach to maintaining healthy teeth for kids and adults alike.
