Pit and Fissure Sealants

Pit and fissure sealants are protective coatings applied to the grooves and depressions on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. At Lakshme Dental, we offer this preventive treatment to shield your child’s teeth from cavities, especially in areas that are hard to clean with regular brushing. The sealants act as a barrier against food particles and bacteria, reducing the risk of decay. This quick, painless procedure helps maintain your child’s oral health and prevents more invasive treatments later.
