Preventive Treatments (Pit and Fissure Sealants, Fluoride Application)
At Revive Dental Clinic, we offer preventive treatments such as pit and fissure sealants and fluoride applications to protect your teeth from decay and other oral health issues. These treatments are especially beneficial for children and individuals at high risk of cavities, helping to maintain healthy teeth and prevent costly dental treatments in the future.
Pit and fissure sealants are a protective coating applied to the grooves of the teeth, primarily the back molars, where cavities are most likely to form. Fluoride application strengthens tooth enamel and helps prevent tooth decay by remineralizing the enamel. Both of these preventive treatments are quick, painless, and highly effective.

How Preventive Treatments Work
Pit and fissure sealants are applied to the grooves of the teeth after a thorough cleaning. The sealant is painted onto the chewing surfaces of the teeth and hardened with a special light, providing an effective barrier against decay. Fluoride application is typically done after a cleaning and involves applying a concentrated fluoride solution to the teeth to strengthen enamel and protect against cavities.
