Sealants

SEALANTS

Dental sealants are like a superhero when it comes to keeping tooth decay at bay. Brushing and flossing is great, but it can be hard for kids to reach the back molars. That’s why we offer sealants; a thin, protective coating that’s applied to the permanent molar. This barrier helps protect the molars and keep your kid’s mouth cavity-free! In fact, the CDC says that school-age children without sealants have almost three times more cavities than children with sealants.

F.A.Q.

Who are sealants recommended for?

As soon as your child’s permanent molars come in (around the age of six, typically) they can have sealants applied. The earlier you get them, the better! Children get a second set of molars around the age of 12, so we always recommend they get sealants applied to those teeth as well. We can always help you decide if sealants are a good option for your kids, but in most cases, they’re going to help keep their teeth cavity-free, saving you time and money in the long run.

How long do sealants last?

Sealants can last up to ten years, but we’ll check them during each check-up to make sure they still look good. If we need to re-apply them, we can do that during the regular appointment.

To our wonderful patients and their families,

We miss your children and their smiling faces!

While many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your children’s dental health, safety, and overall well-being. We are gearing up to reopen in stages. In the initial phase, we will need to focus on those patients with emergent and urgent dental needs, such as those with existing treatment that had to be postponed or cancelled due to the crisis. During the first phase, it will also be necessary to see a reduced volume of patients on a daily basis, to comply with guidelines on social distancing and infection control from state and national agencies. We appreciate your patience and understanding in this process, and encourage you to reach out if you have any questions or concerns so we may do our best to accommodate you.

We are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we take to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice.  Feel free to reach us by phone at (954) 727-9865, or email INFO@JOURNEYKIDSDENTAL.COM.

Thank you for all so much for your continued support of our small, private practice. We value your trust and strive to continue delivering the very best care that you have grown accustomed to over the past 8 years. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Sincerely,

Drs. Marisabel Olivera, Alejandra Romero, Arghavan Welch

and the entire team at Journey Kids Dental
