Children's prevention

Fluoride and sealants for children ages 5 and up

Children and teens can benefit from preventive care that protects newly erupted permanent molars and supports stronger enamel as brushing habits develop.

Sealants are often recommended for newly erupted permanent molars because deep grooves are harder for children to clean.

Fluoride treatment can support enamel strength and reduce cavity risk.

Parents receive clear home-care guidance for brushing, flossing, diet, and recall timing.
