Reduce Tooth Decay

What are Fissure Sealants?

Dental Fissure sealants are a protective layer applied on the chewing teeth (molars) to reduce tooth decay in the grooves and pits of the tooth

Fissure sealants are a white or clear composite resin, similar to white tooth filling.

The sealant forms a hard shield that keeps food and bacteria from getting into the teeth

Prevent Deep Decay

How do they benefit the health of the tooth?

Generally it is due to genetics how the tooth forms and in the molar teeth fissures can tend to be deep

By sealing the tooth when they first erupt, it can prevent common deep decay in the future

It allows for patients to easily clean the biting surface of the tooth.

What happens in the procedure?

Our dentist or oral health therapist uses tools to clean out the groove painlessly. The tooth is then washed and dried.

The coating of the flowable filling material is then placed in the deep areas to reduce bacteria and plaque to form there

How long do they last?

Depending on how well the patient cleans their teeth, the fissure sealant can sometimes wear away

Every 6 months, they should be checked and if they have fallen out or a small part has come away, the practitioner will add a little or replace the fissure sealant completely

I'm not a great dental patient but I got the poor teeth in my family so I spend quite a bit of time in the dentist chair. I have gone to Nicole for over 10 years now and we have built a strong relationship where she knows me, what makes me nervous, and how to help me stay calm. This has built a really strong foundation of trust in Nicole and her team for my whole family.

Love this place!?! Best service from a dentist I’ve had in years the girls fixed my teeth up nicely. non judgemental positive environment also really went through with me and showed me the damage I had done and the next and best steps to keep my smile bright and beautiful and healthy. Was always abit scared of getting myself to the dentist would 100% go back here though.

Dr Yuen is a lifesaver. I had been getting migraines and to think it came from my tooth. She provided emergency treatment and scheduled me back to ensure that it did not happen again. She and her team provide holistic care for myself and my family. My toddler was booked in and they were amazing! He was not scared at all and had so much fun in the dentist chair! Thank you Yeronga Park!

Dr Nicole is amazing. She is very gentle and spends the time to explain things throughly so I can understand everything that is going on during my appointment. She is calm and makes me feel at ease for being at the dentist. The practice staff are so lovely which makes such a difference to have such friendly receptionists and dental assistants. Overall a really great experience :-)
