Fissure Sealants

Dental Fissure Sealants in Cranbourne

Dental fissure sealants are white, tinted or clear plastic coatings or cements that are applied to the fissures and grooves on the back teeth in order to protect against tooth decay. If you’re looking to give yourself or your child extra protection against decay, our friendly dentist at Shine Dental Group is available to provide fissure sealants in Cranbourne as a preventative treatment for kids and adults.

Why Are Fissure Sealants Used?

Dental sealants shield molars and premolars from decay by smoothing out hard-to-clean grooves. Deep fissures trap food and bacteria, leading to cavities – but sealants block this risk. Compared to dental filling cost, sealants are a budget-friendly preventive measure that saves you money long-term. Early decay can even be halted with sealants, avoiding the need for pricier fillings. Protect your family’s smiles now and reduce future dental bills!

When Should Dental Fissure Sealants Be Done?

Fissure sealants are best done on newly erupted permanent teeth. For this reason, it’s a common preventative treatment for children and teenagers. However, it can also be done on baby teeth and adult teeth as a safeguard. A protected tooth has half the risk of tooth decay compared to an unprotected tooth. While your dentist cannot guarantee the prevention of decay on all tooth surfaces, dental sealants can greatly lower the risk.

Are Fissure Sealants Permanent?

No, the fissure sealant material is designed to wear away over time. Your dentist can reapply fissure sealants as needed if wearing has occurred.

How Much Do Fissure Sealants Cost?

The fissure sealants cost can vary depending on a range of factors, including how many teeth require treatment and whether you currently hold extras health insurance. Your dentist will be able to provide you with an accurate cost estimate after examining your teeth.
