At Peninsula Gateway Dental, Frankston, we want to prevent dental diseases. One of the most common dental problems in Australia are cavities. Cavities can start developing as food and bacteria get trapped into deep grooves on our teeth – these grooves are called fissures.
A fissure sealant covers these grooves preventing the ingress of food and bacteria and making it easier to brush. They are highly effective in people of all ages but especially children where we see higher rates of dental cavities. A fissure sealant may prevent the need for tooth fillings in the future!
If you would like to find out if fissures sealants are suitable for you, please call us on (03) 9781 3888.
