Fissure Sealants at you Redcliffe Dentist

Fissure Sealants are used to protect the teeth from potential decay, the are usually placed on children’s molar and premolar teeth with deep groves on the chewing service. If the dentist believes they may be at risk of developing decay, they place a plastic material into the grooves of the teeth and this will help prevent bacteria from getting in and causing decay. If your child is eligible for the medicare child benefit scheme the fissure sealants are covered at no out of pocket expense. Give the team at John Street Dental a call, we can check if your child is eligible for the medicare scheme and book and appointment to see if fissure sealants may help prevent decay for your children.
