1 year agoOne of the reasons we don’t seal adult teeth is because insurance doesn’t cover it and people don’t want to pay for it (there are other reasons like prior fillings, loss of tooth structure, groove being less prominent, etc). If someone asks for it to be done and agrees to pay out of pocket we’ll definitely do it.
Almost all children in USA get sealants as a preventative measure, in my experience.
