Dental sealants are thin, clear protective coverings applied to the back teeth to prevent cavities and deep staining. At Dental Studio of Melissa, Dr. Lena Khan uses sealants to protect teeth that would otherwise be vulnerable. The beauty of sealants is that they are ideal for both pediatric and adult patients, making them a smart preventive option for families across Melissa, TX.
Your back teeth have grooves, deep fissures, and pitting that can make them difficult to keep clean. These areas can become deeply stained over time and are more susceptible to tooth decay.
A thorough examination helps Dr. Lena Khan determine if sealants are right for you, and older sealants can be replaced easily in our office.
The sealant procedure is quick, simple, and completed within minutes. We first clean and dry the back teeth, then brush a clear liquid varnish over the chewing surfaces. The sealants are dried and cured with a bright light, and the process is repeated for any other back teeth that need protection. It is important to keep brushing and flossing normally, since sealants protect only the back chewing surfaces.

If someone told me I'd have a 5-star experience at a dentist of all places, I'd call them a liar. Well, I just had two.

I needed dental work that I had put off for years because I was terrified of the dentist. I thought it was going to be so painful, but it wasn't.
