Worried About Cavities in Your Child’s Hard-to-Reach Molars?
Discover how dental sealants at Granada Dental help protect vulnerable teeth before problems start.
What Are Dental Sealants and Why Do They Matter?
Even the most dedicated brushing and flossing routines can miss the small, deep grooves on the chewing surfaces of back teeth—especially in kids. These grooves are prime spots for food and bacteria to settle, eventually leading to cavities.
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars. Think of them as a safety shield—blocking out plaque, bacteria, and food particles from getting trapped in those hard-to-reach areas. For children and teens, sealants are a simple, non-invasive way to reduce their risk of tooth decay and future dental procedures.
At Granada Dental, we offer professional sealant treatments for patients of all ages, with a particular focus on protecting developing smiles.
Why Families in Sherwood Park Trust Dental Sealants
They’re Preventive Not Reactive
They’re Quick and Painless
They’re Long-Lasting
They’re Cost-Effective
Who Should Get Dental Sealants?
At Granada Dental, we recommend sealants for:
- Children ages 6–14 as their permanent molars come in
- Teens who haven’t had cavities in certain molars yet
- Adults with deep grooves in their back teeth
- Patients with a history of cavities or enamel defects
How the Sealant Process Works at Granada Dental
1. Cleaning the Tooth Surface
We start by thoroughly cleaning the tooth to remove any plaque or debris from the grooves.
2. Prepping the Tooth
A gentle acidic solution is applied to the surface to help the sealant bond more securely.
3. Applying the Sealant
The sealant is brushed onto the tooth in liquid form and then cured using a special blue light.
4. Final Check
Once hardened, our dentists will ensure everything is smooth, secure, and properly sealed.
The entire procedure takes just a few minutes per tooth—and there’s no need for downtime or post-visit restrictions.

That’s okay. At Granada Dental, we believe in giving parents all the information they need to make confident decisions. During your next visit, ask us about sealants. We’ll evaluate your child’s teeth and explain whether sealants are appropriate—and what the benefits could be in their specific case.
