Dental sealants are one of the easiest and most effective ways to protect your child’s smile — but when should they get them?
- Deep grooves in molars
- History of cavities or decay
- Difficulty brushing properly
- Sweet tooth or frequent snacking
- Young age (6–14 years old is ideal)
- Lack of fluoride in water/home care
- Visible plaque despite brushing
Bonus Tip:
Sealants are quick, painless, and usually covered by most insurance plans — making them a smart preventive step for families across Surrey.
Conclusion:
If your child shows any of these signs, it may be time to add sealants to their next dental visit.
