You’ve heard the saying, “Prevention is better than cure,” and in dental health, this has never been more true. Are you looking for Pit and Fissure Sealants in Dubai or Al Furjan. If you take good care of your teeth, you won’t have to worry about them getting hurt. For example, pit and fissure sealants are one way to stop the decay that leads to dental caries.
A report from The Journal of the American Dental Association says that these fluoride sealants can work especially well on teens and young children, whose teeth are often too wet to hold traditional adhesives.
Even though teeth naturally have pits and fissures, they can get worse over time and cause dental caries. A child with pits and fissures may be a good candidate for dental sealants. The International Dental Health Foundation says that pits are small holes on the biting surface of permanent teeth, while fissures are grooves on the outside of the tooth’s surface. In both cases, bacteria can easily grow in these places, which may be hard to get rid of even with good oral hygiene.
As this bacteria grows, it reacts with the starches in the food you eat, turning them into acids that can eat away at your tooth enamel. If this causes enough tooth decay, it will eventually reach the tooth’s inner pulp. This can cause damage that is both painful and unsightly and can cause problems with your teeth for the rest of your life.
Dental sealants coat and seal the grooves and hollows, stopping even the most dangerous bacteria from building up on the tooth. Whether or not your child needs a sealant depends on the size and depth of the hollows and grooves in his or her teeth. Most of the time, these sealants are put on the molars and premolars in the back of the mouth. This is because these are the teeth that are most likely to have uneven surfaces.
