What is sealing?

Sealing literally means “to seal” or “to close off.” It’s a dental procedure in which a thin layer of resin is applied to the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars. This is done painlessly and without drilling. The goal is to close deep grooves and pits, preventing bacteria from settling in hard-to-clean areas.

Why is sealing important?

Groeven in kiezen zijn lastig schoon te houden, vooral bij kinderen. Bacteriën in tandplak kunnen zich daar ophopen en leiden tot gaatjes. Door deze kwetsbare plekken te sealen, verklein je de kans op tandbederf aanzienlijk. Sealen is een veilige en effectieve manier om het gebit preventief te beschermen.

When is sealing applied?

Sealing is usually done shortly after the permanent molars have erupted — the time when the risk of cavities is highest. It’s especially beneficial for children who struggle with thorough brushing. The treatment preserves the natural shape of the tooth and contributes to long-term oral health.
