Applying fissure sealants to protect deep molar grooves in East Brisbane
Sealants shield hard-to-clean grooves where decay often starts.

What Are Fissure Sealants?

A thin, tooth-coloured resin that flows into the pits and fissures of molars and bonds to enamel, creating a smooth, cleanable surface that helps prevent cavities.

Who Are They For?

  • Kids with newly erupted 6- and 12-year molars
  • Teens/adults with deep grooves or early “stainy” fissures
  • Patients with higher decay risk or difficulty cleaning

Benefits

  • Painless, no drilling in most cases
  • Fast appointment; immediate eating afterwards
  • Affordable prevention vs. future fillings
  • Tooth-coloured, smooth and easy to clean

How Sealants Work (Step-by-Step)

  1. Clean and isolate the tooth
  2. Condition enamel for a strong bond
  3. Flow sealant into grooves and light-cure
  4. Check the bite; polish edges smooth

We’ll also review diet, fluoride and brushing technique to support long-term cavity prevention.
