Fissure Sealants for Cavity Prevention

​The narrow and deep grooves on back (molar) teeth can collect plaque which the toothbrush cannot reach. These grooves or fissures are high-risk sites for dental decay.

A fissure sealant is a tooth coloured protective coating which fills and seals in children’s teeth to prevent bacteria from entering and causing decay. Applied early on after the first molar erupts into the mouth at the age of 6 years old, sealants can protect teeth at their most vulnerable time. Sometimes sealants may also be recommended to adults for high risk deep grooves that have not yet decayed.

Having fissure sealants placed is quick and painless. It usually takes a few minutes per tooth and is much less complicated than having a dental filling. To check there isn’t any decay present before we begin we may take a set of x-rays.

This procedure can be completed by one of our Dentists, Dental Hygienists or Oral Health Therapists.

What Our Patients Say About Our Children's Dental Care Services

  • Dr Sarah Nguyen very gentle and professional dentist

    Sam H Avatar Sam H

    Mitcham Dental would have to be one of the BEST dental clinics in the east. They are always so accomodating, friendly and very experienced in all aspects of dentistry. I am quite a nervous patient when it comes to my teeth. They are also very patient and make the customer feel comfortable at all times. So many options are given to a patient and always explained prior to treatment. I must give Sarah a thumb up always for taking care of my teeth and making me feel comfortable, and not nervous whilst performing my dental treatment. The outcome is always positive and I always keep coming back. Congratulations to the whole team at Mitcham Dental. Keep up the grest work!

    I fell down and chipped my front tooth so I was desperately looking for a dental clinic that's still open. although it was very last minute, the clinic remained opened to see me which was such a nice gesture. Dr Trinh was very compassionate and friendly and immediately filled the tooth which now looks amazing. can't even tell the difference now! i usually am scared to go see a dentist but i felt very comfortable this time! thank you again!

    Staff are fantastic and very accommodating, I didn't feel belittled or guilted at all which I have experienced at other dentists. Everything was easily explained and my concerns were taken into account. The building is clean and comfy and they go above and beyond to provide as comfortable a service as possible. I highly recommend this clinic if you're in the area.
