Dental Sealants

Dental Sealants in Tysons Corner, VA

The deep grooves of back teeth are magnets for decay. Sealants create a smooth, protective barrier that keeps cavities out — a smart, painless defense.

Seal out cavities before they start

Simple protection where cavities begin

The chewing surfaces of molars and premolars are full of tiny pits and grooves where food and bacteria collect — and where a toothbrush often can't reach. That's why these back teeth are the most common place for cavities, especially in children.

Dental sealants solve the problem. At Westpark Dental Studio in Tysons Corner, we apply a thin, tooth-colored resin that flows into those grooves and hardens into a smooth, protective shield. The result is a surface that's far easier to keep clean and dramatically less likely to decay.

Sealants are quick, completely painless, and require no drilling. While they're most common for children as their permanent molars come in, adults with deep grooves and no decay can benefit too. It's an easy, affordable way to protect the smiles of Tysons Corner families for years.
