Sealants

Dental Sealants in Pembroke Pines FL are an Effective and Affordable Way of Preventing Cavities in Kids

Tooth decay is an issue for children and adults alike. It can lead to painful complications and expensive procedures. However, Dr. Milton Ruiz offers a powerful line of defense for patients of all ages, protecting your teeth from the development of cavities or decay.

Dental sealants are an effective solution for those with delicate enamel or who could use a little help with their oral care routine. Dr. Ruiz is specially trained in the application of dental sealants, and he is available to patients of all ages in the Pembroke Pines area looking to stop tooth decay before it starts.

The phrase “dental sealants” refers to a variety of thin coatings (made from plastic or other dental materials) painted over the active chewing surfaces of your teeth. These coatings form a protective shield over your teeth, preventing plaque from developing or decay from doing long-term damage.

Low-Cost Sealants are Proven to Reduce Decay in Kids and Adults

Sealants have been proven to reduce decay in molars by up to 80%. This reduction benefits not only you or your child’s oral health, but it’s also a low-cost alternative to more complicated procedures such as cavities or crowns.

The application of dental sealants is a quick and easy process, completed in a single visit. For you or your kid, it amounts to a few minutes in the chair while your dentist paints the sealant over your teeth then dries it with a special blue light. After that, you or your kid will be better suited to prevent tooth decay than ever before.

Sealants are a safe and healthy treatment, with no known side effects, and they can last several years before needing to be reapplied. Maintenance of your sealant is the same as a natural tooth, and Dr. Ruiz will check your sealant at each cleaning to ensure it remains effective and undamaged.

To assess if dental sealants are right for you or your kid, patients in the Pembroke Pines area should call Pines Dental Associates today to consult  with Dr. Ruiz. New patients can schedule an appointment at (954) 715-4660.
