Seal the doors on bacteria; get dental sealants for your child

Dental sealants can minimize decay by as much as 80%, according to the American Dental Association (ADA). Secure your child against cavity. Get dental sealants for your kid!

Why those little teeth need extra protection

Here's a rough mix: sticky candy, sugary-sodas and kids who just begin to get the hang of brushing and flossing. No wonder the cavities are the # 1 infancy problem in the United States.

Dental sealants will help protect your child's teeth so those chompers remain safe.

Sealants protect the back teeth

Molars on their tops have nooks and crannies that sugary foods get stuck to. And because they're way in the back, they're extra hard to brush, particularly in small young mouths.

Sealants provide a protective barrier between the bacteria and the tooth enamel. Using a sealant doesn't mean your child gets to stop brushing and flossing; it just provides an extra line of cavity protection.

What’s the pain-free procedure to get Sealants?

  • We do a thorough inspection and cleaning to ensure every tooth is safe and ready for sealing.
  • Next, we are cleaning your child's teeth and applying a mild gel to help strong the sealant bond.
  • Then a quick rinse to remove gel and thoroughly dry again.
  • Now, we are placing the sealant and using a special UV light to cure it. It just takes a few seconds to complete.

How long can sealants last?

Dental sealants can last for quite a long time. At any check-up, the dentist will test the sealant. When it starts drying, the dentist will apply a fast touch-up.

How is it that kids should have dental sealants?

During their tweens or teens, children typically get dental sealants after their adult molars are in. Younger kids with signs of tooth decay may even have sealants on their baby molars.

Are Sealants safe for kids?

Sealants form a thin layer of protection over your child's teeth. A child can experience a mild allergic reaction in rare cases, which can be reversed by removing the sealant. Even the American Dental Association (ADA) suggests sealants.

I so love affordable dentist. At first I was skeptical and unsure but I took a leap and made an appointment. I’ve been going through some extensive dental work, but the staff here is exceptionally loving and they make sure my confidence stays up to par. I love the ladies here so much it feels like family and I hate to leave lol 😂. The doctors are very nice, helpful, and professional. I got a tooth extracted, and implant placed in less than 15 minutes and I couldn’t believe the doctor when he said it would take that amount of time. Affordable dentist and its staff keeps me laughing and smiling but most of all feeling loved. 🥹🥹

Would not recommend, unless you absolutely have to. Staff was extremely friendly but no one knew what was going on. I went in for a cleaning and I left after 2.5 hours. The entire appointment had a lot of back and forth and waiting. Someone would come in, say "Hey you doing okay? Great, I'll get the doctor" or "I'm just getting set up and I'll be right back." They would maybe grab a pair of gloves, or move a chair from one side of the room to the other (and then move it back) and then make a comment that they were short staffed or technology was being slow. For the cleaning, they polished my teeth first, which was odd. The tech did not know what she was doing- the toothpaste was literally flying all over the room. It ended up in my hair, and all over my glasses and face. The dentist who "cleaned" my teeth was extremely rough. It's not uncommon for my gums to bleed or get nicked, but after an hour, they're still bleeding. The toothpaste that was used was still stuck in my teeth after. They did not floss as part of the cleaning. I had asked to get molds for new retainers, but it was more waiting and "oh the computer is being slow." So I left at the 2.5 hour mark. The rooms are more like cubicles- they do not have doors. They also do not have sinks- everything is portable, like a pop up shop. Every room has two large flat screen TVs installed and mounted, but none of them turned on (not even the weather or like a reminder to floss). The rooms are freshly painted and decorated. The person on the phone had suggested a same day appointment multiple times. The waiting room was packed. Another person who had the same appointment time as me was still in the waiting room after an hour. It felt like they're trying to get people in the door. It felt like the two women who were interacting with me the most were not actually trained or authorized to perform work, but more like they were just supposed to stall. Again, everyone was super friendly. I have some theories about how this place operates but I'll keep that to myself. It was not traumatizing and it was not the worst experience I've had at a dentist-but definitely the most bizarre. I had scheduled a follow up appointment at the beginning of my visit and I canceled it before I left because I would not want to return.

Great experience. Went in for a tooth pull and was out really quick. Dr.Pham was amazing and so was Jennifer. While in the room Jennifer talked to me and my girl and really made sure I was comfortable and had a good experience while there. If I could give 20 stars I would. 10/10 DEFINITELY recommend.

Chrissy at the front desk was super helpful and caring…she went the extra mile to make sure I got what I needed. Dr M. Kim Den was great as well I got 2 extractions and she told me step by step everything she was doing and also made sure I wasn’t in any pain. The last wisdom tooth I got removed hurt so I was scared but this procedure went so smooth I didn’t even realize she was done because I felt absolutely nothing. This is definitely going to be my dental office from now on.

They did a fantastic job on fixing my grill. I have acid reflux really bad and so the acid has eaten up my teeth. I now have a new 😁 smile thanks to them. Their nurses are the freaking best part of my entire experience. Very sincere and caring.
