Kids’ Oral Health: East Cobb Pediatric Dentist Recommends Sealants

Leave a comment

Sealants are recommended for children who are at least six years old and have started to grow permanent molars. There’s no drilling involved, making it less scary for the young ones. After around two rounds of cleaning and drying, and the application of an etching gel to facilitate bonding, the sealant is applied.

Sealants may also be used to protect milk teeth, which is important to ensure the proper growth of permanent teeth. As a reliable kids dentist in East Cobb, like Dr. Brent Herrin, will tell anyone, it is never too early to start dental care, and sealants offer one of the most effective ways to ensure the dental health of children.
