Dental Sealants in Burbank, CA
Extra Protection for Cavity-Prone Teeth
Even with great brushing and flossing habits, some areas of your teeth—especially the deep grooves of molars—can be difficult to clean. At Coastland Dental, we offer dental sealants as a simple, effective way to protect these vulnerable areas and reduce the risk of cavities.
Sealants create a thin, protective barrier over the chewing surfaces of your teeth, helping to block out food particles and bacteria before they can cause decay. It’s a quick, painless treatment that provides long-lasting protection for both children and adults.
Protect your Smile with a Simple, Preventive Solution
Whether you're considering sealants for your child or yourself, our team is here to help you make the best choice for your oral health.
What Are Dental Sealants?
Dental sealants are a clear or tooth-colored coating applied to the grooves of your back teeth (molars and premolars). These areas naturally have small pits and fissures where plaque and bacteria can accumulate, making them more prone to cavities.
Once applied, the sealant bonds to the enamel and acts as a shield—keeping harmful substances out while preserving the natural tooth structure. The process is non-invasive and requires no drilling or anesthesia, making it an easy preventive solution for patients of all ages.
Who Can Benefit from Dental Sealants?
Dental sealants are commonly recommended for children and teenagers as soon as their permanent molars come in, but adults can benefit as well—especially if they are prone to cavities or have deep grooves in their teeth.
You may be a good candidate for sealants if you:
- Have deep pits or grooves in your molars
- Are prone to cavities or tooth decay
- Want to take a preventive approach to oral health
- Have newly erupted permanent teeth (for children/teens)
- Want added protection beyond brushing and flossing
Our team will evaluate your teeth and determine if sealants are the right choice for you or your child.

The Dental Sealant Process
Getting dental sealants is quick and comfortable, often completed in just one visit:
Cleaning the Tooth
The tooth is thoroughly cleaned to remove plaque and debris
Preparing the Surface
A gentle solution is applied to help the sealant bond effectively
Applying the Sealant
The liquid sealant is painted onto the grooves of the tooth
Curing the Material
A special light hardens the sealant, forming a protective barrier
Once complete, the sealant begins protecting your tooth immediately.
How Long Do Sealants Last?
With proper care, dental sealants can last several years. During your routine checkups, we’ll monitor their condition and reapply them if needed to ensure continued protection.
Maintaining good oral hygiene, including brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits, will help extend the life of your sealants and keep your smile healthy.
