Added Protection for Cavity-Prone Teeth

Dental sealants offer a simple and effective way to prevent cavities, especially in hard-to-reach areas of the mouth. Copper Hills Dental provides dental sealants in Safford, AZ, for children and adults as part of our commitment to preventive care. This quick treatment helps shield teeth from decay and supports long-term oral health.

A Barrier Against Tooth Decay

Sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars. These back teeth have deep grooves and pits where food particles and bacteria can collect, making them more vulnerable to cavities – even with regular brushing and flossing.Our dentists may recommend dental sealants for:
  • Children and teens whose permanent molars have recently erupted
  • Adults with deep grooves or a history of decay
  • Patients with difficulty maintaining consistent oral hygiene
  • Anyone seeking added protection against cavities

Sealants act as a physical barrier, blocking out debris and bacteria while creating a smooth surface that is easier to clean.

Quick, Painless and Effective

The application of dental sealants is simple and non-invasive. The procedure takes just a few minutes per tooth and involves no drilling or discomfort. Our dentists and team clean the tooth, apply a special gel to prepare the surface, rinse it off and then paint on the sealant material. A curing light is used to harden the sealant in seconds.Benefits of dental sealants include:
  • Proven reduction in the risk of cavities
  • Fast and comfortable application
  • Long-lasting protection with proper care
  • Ideal for children and adults
  • A cost-effective preventive measure

Sealants can last several years and are checked during regular dental visits. If needed, they can be reapplied to ensure continued protection.

At our dental office, we believe that preventive dentistry is key to lifelong oral health. Sealants are one of the easiest and most effective ways to protect your smile and avoid more extensive treatments down the road.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Skinner for many years now. He has fixed all my upper teeth when he had nothing to work with. My teeth were bad, I’m talking worn down to the gum. I use to not smile because I had no self-esteem because I knew how bad my teeth looked. I highly recommend Dr. Skinner. He has done an amazing job on my grill. Not only did he fix my teeth, but in doing so he has also helped my self-esteem. I am always smiling these days. My whole family gets work at his office. The staff is very friendly, kind, and helpful. For me and my family, Copper Hills Dental is the spot. I highly recommend going here for your dental care.
