Dental Sealants, Cavity Protection for You and Your Family

Posted By: Dr. Rina M. Kotecha | Published On: Dec 1, 2022 | Sealants

Everyone is susceptible to cavities. Good oral hygiene habits can help reduce your risk of decay and keep your teeth strong and healthy. At Dentistry On 10 in Mississauga, Ontario, we offer additional cavity protection in the form of dental sealants. Sealants are plastic coatings that Dr. Rina Kotecha can apply to the chewing surfaces of your molars to keep harmful bacteria from accumulating and causing cavities. Sealants bond with your teeth to seal out food and bacteria and keep your teeth safe from decay.

Dental Sealants Benefits

Your molars have grooves that can easily trap food particles when you eat. This food will eventually prompt bacteria to breed. Over time, harmful bacteria will start to erode the enamel of your teeth and cause cavities. Dental sealants form a protective covering over your teeth which keeps food out to reduce plaque and bacteria build-up and your risk of cavities. Sealants can help you and your family enjoy stronger, healthier teeth.

As sealants are clear or white in colour, they’re inconspicuous on your teeth and won’t show up when you smile, laugh or eat. We recommend sealants for back teeth, which do most of the chewing. Sealants are durable enough to withstand the pressure of years of biting, chewing and grinding food.

Although anyone can benefit from the protection that sealants provide, they’re an excellent investment for children once their permanent molars grow in, as children aren’t always diligent in brushing their back teeth.

Hi, before I come to see Doctor Rina and her amazing staff, I was actually someone that had not gone to the dentist for a while because I was so stressed and very worried and anxious about it.
I had been recommended about her from other people and kept in the back of my mind. I finally made the call and from the first call the reception was absolutely amazing and made me feel at home. I let them know right away, I was really anxious. This is when I came in to see the doctor, Doctor Rena was amazing. She went through everything with me. I wouldn’t even smile when I walked in, she noticed I wouldn’t smile. I had had temporary caps on my front teeth for a really, really long time, so she took me through what her options were and it wasn’t good enough that it was just like here’s ABC. She wanted to make sure that we had gone too. A specialist to make sure mines a little bit more, more, issues. Having had root canal treatments on my front teeth and I went ahead, came back and again she sat down with me and gave me all of my options. What’s best for me? What can we do? What can we expect long term? Everyone here is so nice and warm they from the time I walked in for all my appointments they were all. How are you, Paula? How’s everything going? And you just feel like you’re part of a family and made me really feel at ease within a month and a half, She had me smiling like I am now. It was great, my friends, my family, my work people. They all notice exactly just how much more confident I am that I can smile. And honestly, it’s with her and because of the team here. And I found a place I can come back to and now really put my dental health as a priority. So, I definitely recommend her if there’s anything that you’ve left or you just need help on or you’re just looking for a place that you can come and feel comfortable. I definitely say, come to see Doctor Rina.
