Dental Sealant is an option some patients may consider to help prevent cavities. Between brushing, all people's teeth develop a sticky substance called plaque. When the plaque comes in contact with food or sugar, the two combine to create an acid that begins to eat away at the teeth; this acid causes cavities.

Regardless of how well you brush and floss, there are always small particles of food stuck in the tiny crevices that are all over the teeth. People of all ages can suffer from cavities because of this. In addition to proper brushing and flossing, there is something you can do to decrease the likelihood of getting a cavity in your teeth.

Dr. Kourosh Maddahi, Beverly Hills family dentist, suggests this treatment called Dental Sealant. It is a thin piece of plastic that is placed over a tooth that helps to keep the particles of food off the teeth. Dental Sealants are usually placed on the rear molars, as these teeth tend to have the most crevices for food to get stuck in, as they are the chewing teeth.

A sealant will keep these teeth safe from decay. Sealants are made to hold up to the force of chewing food, and they generally last for several years. Tooth sealants have been used by dentists for over 20 years with great success.

In regards to your teeth, it's always better to prevent a cavity than to get the cavity repaired. Proper brushing and flossing techniques combined with Dental Sealant is one of the most surefire ways to avoid dental cavities. If you're interested in never suffering from another cavity, Dental Sealant is a great option to consider.
