Simple Steps for Stronger Teeth
Fluoride & Sealants in Newark, NJ
Fluoride treatments and sealants offer proven protection against cavities—especially for children, teens, and cavity-prone areas of the mouth.
Preventive Protection That Works
Fluoride and sealants are quick, affordable ways to protect your teeth from decay. Fluoride strengthens enamel and reverses early signs of cavities, while sealants create a barrier over grooves in molars—blocking food and bacteria from getting trapped.
These treatments are safe, effective, and especially valuable for kids, teens, and adults with high cavity risk. They require no drilling and can last for years with proper care.

What to Expect During Your Visit
Oral Evaluation
We assess your risk of tooth decay and determine which teeth would benefit from fluoride or sealants. This includes checking for early signs of enamel breakdown, cavity-prone molars, and dietary or health-related risks.
Application of Fluoride or Sealants
Fluoride is painted or varnished onto teeth to strengthen enamel. For sealants, we clean and dry the molars before applying a thin coating to seal out bacteria. Both are quick, comfortable, and require no drilling or anesthesia.
Follow-Up & At-Home Care
We’ll give you tips to extend the benefits of fluoride and sealants through brushing, diet, and routine dental checkups. With the right care, sealants can last for years and fluoride continues working between visits.
Build a Healthier Smile That Lasts
Preventive treatments like fluoride and sealants help reduce the need for future fillings and dental work. By protecting enamel and hard-to-clean areas of the mouth, they lower cavity rates and help patients maintain stronger, healthier teeth over time.
We recommend fluoride and sealants for children as their teeth develop, and for adults with a history of decay or sensitivity. It's a smart, simple step toward lifelong oral health.
