Welcome to Costa and Williams

Built for Busy FamiliesHow Sealants Work and Why They Matter

The sealant process is fast, easy, and completed in one visit:

  1. We clean and dry the teeth
  2. A gentle solution is applied to help the sealant bond
  3. The composite resin material is painted onto the tooth
  4. A special light hardens it in seconds

That’s it. No drilling, no anesthesia, no stress. Once applied, sealants can protect teeth for several years, acting as a barrier against food, bacteria, and plaque buildup in hard-to-brush areas.

Who Should Consider Sealants?Great for Kids and Families

Sealants are especially recommended for:

  • Children and teens, once permanent molars have erupted
  • Recommended for kids with deep grooves or high risk of decay
  • Patients who want a conservative, non-invasive way to protect their teeth

If you’ve had cavities in the past—or you want to help your child avoid them in the future-sealants are one of the simplest, smartest choices in modern dentistry.

With proper care, sealants can last up to 5–10 years. Here’s how to make the most of them:

  • Brush and floss daily

  • Visit us for regular checkups to monitor wear
