June 28, 2010 - PRLog -- David M. Blass, D.M.D's latest blog entitled, Dental Educator which provides dental patients in Teaneck, NJ, Hackensack, NJ and Englewood, NJ helpful hints for a healthy mouth. Dr. Blass' June 9th , 2010 blog post talks about the value of having sealant applied to teeth.

“Sealant can be looked upon as insurance policy against decay, much like going out and purchasing a snow blower”. Said Dr. Blass from his Teaneck, NJ dental practice.

Sealants is a liquid that a dentist paints on to your teeth. Once the liquid is applied, the dentist will then shine a light on the tooth. This light will cause the liquid to begin to harden.

Dentist will apply sealant to a normal molar with deep groves.  Molars with deep groves have a tendency to be prone to cavities or decay.

Teaneckl, NJ dentist, Dr. David M. Blass states in his blog that patients who are eligible for sealant must have "virgin teeth," meaning no cavities or decay.  “People who fit into the group range from young school children who have already gotten their first molars to late adolescence, when cavities become less common and the incidence of gum disease begins to rise,” Said Dr. Blass.
