- Who is a good candidate for sealants?
-
Anyone who is at a high risk for dental caries should consider sealants. In general, children are good candidates for sealants as long as they are applied before their teeth have a chance to decay. It may be beneficial to apply sealants to newly erupted molars (six and twelve year). You should talk with your general dentist about sealants if you have a disability or do not use fluoridated water. Adults also can benefit from this procedure because they have the same grooves and pits. Ask your dentist if you are a good candidate for sealants.
