Food particles can become trapped and this creates a perfect breeding ground for plaque bacteria which if left, will generate cavities. Fissure sealants work by filling the deep pits and grooves making it easier to clean your teeth and thus helping to prevent cavities from forming.<\/p>\n<h3>The Procedure<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The teeth which the sealants are being placed on will be cleaned and dried.<\/li>\n<li>The chewing surface of\u00a0 the tooth will be prepared to accept the Fissure Sealant<\/li>\n<li>The Fissure Sealant is applied to the tooth using a small\u00a0 brush and then\u00a0 hardened by \u00a0concentrated beam of ultraviolet light<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fissure sealant is a tooth coloured liquid which is applied on the chewing surface of adult molar teeth to prevent cavities from forming in early years.
