Dental Sealants at Dakota Dental in Apple Valley, MN: Protecting Your Smile for Years to Come
Dental sealants are a simple, painless, and effective way to protect your teeth from cavities and decay. These thin, protective coatings are applied to the chewing surfaces of the molars and premolars, creating a barrier that shields enamel from harmful bacteria and food particles.

Benefits of Dental Sealants
- Cavity Prevention: Sealants act as a protective shield against bacteria and acids that cause tooth decay.
- Long-Lasting Protection: With proper care, dental sealants can last up to 10 years.
- Painless and Quick Application: The process is non-invasive, requiring no drilling or anesthesia.
- Cost-Effective: Preventing cavities with sealants can help you avoid costly dental treatments in the future.
- Ideal for Children and Adults: While commonly recommended for children, sealants can also benefit adults with deep grooves in their teeth.
How Are Dental Sealants Applied?
- Cleaning the Tooth Surface: The dentist thoroughly cleans the teeth to remove any plaque or debris.
- Preparing the Tooth: A special gel is applied to help the sealant bond to the tooth surface.
- Applying the Sealant: The liquid sealant is carefully painted onto the chewing surfaces of the teeth.
- Curing the Sealant: A special curing light hardens the sealant, forming a strong, protective shield.
- Final Check: The dentist ensures the sealant has properly bonded and makes any necessary adjustments.
