Sealants: Look Ma, No BPA!

Sealants:

Sealants have been in use since the early 80’s.  Sealants are a means of altering the natural anatomy of a tooth to prevent food impaction.  Typically, the chewing surface  anatomy of a permanent tooth is very “groovy”.  When a sealant is applied properly and kept in place, these grooves will no longer be able to trap food.  Sealants are made typically of two materials:  Resin-based sealant and a cement-style.  Both sealant materials do not contain The Bis-Phenol  A  (BPA) compound.  Ask any member of our staff for more details.
