Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of your back teeth where cavities are most likely to form. At Hollon & Taylor Dental Fairhope, we offer this simple, painless treatment to help block out plaque and bacteria from settling into the natural grooves of molars and premolars. Sealants act as a physical barrier, making it easier to keep your teeth clean and cavity-free, especially for younger patients.
Sealants are most commonly recommended for children and teens as soon as their permanent molars come in, but they’re also a great option for adults with deep grooves or a history of decay. If brushing doesn’t always reach every crevice, sealants can provide added peace of mind. They’re quick to apply and last for years, making them an easy step in a long-term prevention plan.
At Hollon & Taylor Dental Fairhope, we believe prevention is powerful, and dental sealants are one of the simplest ways to protect growing and lifelong smiles.
