Commonly Used Techniques

Fissure Sealant

Where fissures are moderately deep, not stained and there is no decay present – the fissure is cleaned with a fine, narrow brush, the base of the pits and fissures are sealed with a white resin-based sealant, and the remainder of the surface is restored with a flowable composite.

See Preventive Care - “Fissure Sealants” for more information.
