Protect Your Child’s Smile with Dental Sealants in Ottawa
Dental sealants are a highly effective preventative treatment used to protect teeth from cavities and decay. At The Teal Umbrella in Ottawa, we recommend  it especially for children, as their developing teeth are most vulnerable during early growth stages.
These are a thin, protective plastic coating applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth—typically the molars and premolars. These teeth are prone to decay due to their deep grooves and fissures, which can easily trap food and plaque.
How Do Dental Sealants Work?
The application process is quick, comfortable, and completely drill-free. Our experienced dentists gently paint the material onto the surface of the tooth. A special curing light is then used to harden it, creating a durable shield that blocks out harmful bacteria and acids.
We typically recommend sealants as soon as a child’s adult molars come in, helping to safeguard them through the cavity-prone adolescent years.
Why Choose Sealants?
Prevent tooth decay in hard-to-clean areas
Non-invasive and pain-free application
Long-lasting protection for developing smiles
Ideal for kids but beneficial for cavity-prone adults too
