Sealants in Glendale, Arizona | Family & Cosmetic Dental PLLC

A sealant is a thin, plastic coating applied to the chewing surface of molars, premolars and any deep grooves (called pits and fissures) of teeth. More than 75% of dental decay begins in these deep grooves. Teeth with these conditions are hard to clean and are very susceptible to decay. A sealant protects the tooth by sealing deep grooves, creating a smooth, easy to clean surface.

Sealants can protect teeth from decay for many years, but need to be checked for wear and chipping at regular dental visits.

Reasons for sealants:

Children and teenagers – As soon as the six-year molars (the first permanent back teeth) appear or any time throughout the cavity prone years of 6-16.
Adults – Tooth surfaces without decay that have deep grooves or depressions.
Baby teeth – Occasionally done if teeth have deep grooves or depressions and child is cavity prone.

What do sealants involve?

Sealants are easily applied by your dentist or dental hygienist and the process takes only a couple of minutes per tooth.

The teeth to be sealed are thoroughly cleaned and then surrounded with cotton to keep the area dry. A special solution is applied to the enamel surface to help the sealant bond to the teeth. The teeth are then rinsed and dried. Sealant material is carefully painted onto the enamel surface to cover the deep grooves or depressions. Depending on the type of sealant used, the material will either harden automatically or with a special curing light.

Proper home care, a balanced diet, and regular dental visits will aid in the life of your new sealants.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been a patient of Dr. Pulkrabek and his team since probably 2005/2006. I have pretty severe dental anxiety and he is the only reason I’m able to show up for my six month cleanings. He is so gentle, thorough, knowledgeable, and fun. He is efficient. Contemplating a move out of the State and joked that we would probably keep him as our provider and just come back for cleanings. He is that good. Such an amazing dentist.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Pulkrabek is a great dentist, and he does a very good job cleaning and examining teeth. He found a cavity growing underneath a prior filling after taking a closer look. The office staff and dental hygienists are all friendly and professional. I am looking forward to my next visit.
