What are Pit and Fissure Sealants ?

Pit and Fissure sealants are materials applied on caries susceptible areas of posterior teeth to prevent tooth decay. They are applied over the hollows(pits) and grooves(fissures) of the posterior teeth like molars and premolars, and hence the name. Sealants are generally used in pediatric patients upon eruption of molars and premolars to seal out the areas prone to dental decay. Upon their application, they form a micro-mechanically bonded protective layer over the tooth surface,to cut off caries producing bacteria from getting into tiny hollows and grooves and cause decay.

The application of pit and fissure sealants should be done at regular intervals as and when the teeth erupt.The first application should be done at 3 to 4 years of age when the deciduous teeth are present, followed by second application between 6 to 7 years when first permanent molars erupt.Subsequent application at 11 to 13 years of age on eruption of second molars and premolars.Sealants usually last for many years but it is advisable to visit your dentist at regular intervals to ensure that it has not been worn out over a period of time.

The process of sealant application is very simple and takes about few minutes for each tooth.The surface of the tooth is cleaned to get rid of all the food debris,followed by etching of tooth surface and application of boding agent.At last, the pit and fissure sealant is applied on the tooth surface and cured with curing light.This leaves behind a transparent shiny film of sealant over the tooth surface which forbids the entry of caries causing bacteria into the pits and fissures on the tooth. Proper cleansing and brushing routine along with pit and fissure application can drastically reduce the incidence of caries in your children.

Is Root Canal Treatment Possible With Lasers ?

Everyone has experienced tooth problem of some sort atleast once in their lifetime. Most of these problems arise due to infection in the tooth. Major tooth damage leads to its extraction , while moderate and minor damage is often treated by undergoing root canal treatment . Root Canal treatment plays a major role in saving the affected teeth . Majority of the infected tooth portion is removed during root canal treatment and the nerve connected to the infected tooth is removed . As a result the tooth structure is preserved from further damage. But patients are often taken aback on hearing about term  'root canal treatment . This is because of some sort of pain and discomfort caused during the procedure.

The traditional method of root canal involves the use of files and drills during the treatment to remove the infected tissue. The sound of the drills usually scares the patient and creates a sense of discomfort .But with advances in technology, laser is incorporated in the root canal treatment . The use of lasers has proved to be better choice than drills and files. Laser is found to be more bactericidal than the latter two. The laser light gets rid of all the debris and infectious portion with greater accuracy and thus helps in preserving the tooth structure. It is less invasive procedure and therefore causes less bleeding and inflammation. This reduces the overall patient discomfort and is therefore more preferable than the traditional method. So next time if you advised to go for a root canal treatment , don't hesitate, just go for it. As it is does not cause pain , it 'relieves' it.
