What is a Fissure Sealant?
Fissure sealant is the covering of deep grooves and pits (fissures) on the chewing surfaces of teeth with a special material. This preventive application prevents decay formation by covering deep grooves that brushes can't reach.
With over 15 years of experience, we've performed thousands of fissure sealant applications. This simple application, especially done when permanent molars emerge in children, protects teeth from decay for years.
Fissure sealant is one of the most effective and economical methods of preventive dentistry. Taking precautions before decay forms is much better than treating it.
Closing Deep Grooves
We close the narrow and deep pits that even toothbrush bristles cannot enter with a smooth barrier.
Preventing Bacterial Entry
We stop the decay process by preventing food debris and bacteria from leaking into the tooth.
Very Economical Solution
It is a protective investment far below the costs of future major root canal treatments and fillings.
Protecting Tooth Structure
No tissue is removed from the tooth during the procedure, the natural structure of the tooth is completely preserved.
Modern Preventive Techniques
At Altes Clinic, we use high-quality fissure sealants in clear or tooth-colored forms. By cleaning the tooth surface at a microscopic level before application, we ensure that the sealant adheres perfectly to the tooth.
Fast and Comfortable Steps
Surface Cleaning
Chewing surfaces of the teeth are completely cleared of plaque and food debris with special brushes.
Preparation
A gentle cleaning gel is applied to the surface and washed for full bonding of the sealant to the tooth.
Sealant Application
The fluid protective material in liquid form is placed in deep grooves with millimetric precision.
Light Fixing
The protective shield, which hardens in seconds with the help of a blue light, becomes a part of the tooth.
Altes Clinic Preventive Standards
Liquid Barrier Technology
We prefer fluid and durable materials that can leak even into the narrowest grooves.
Bio-Compatible Material
We use safe protectors that do not dissolve in the mouth and do not contain BPA.
Instant Light Hardening
We use systems that harden in seconds so that children do not stay in the chair for a long time.
Check and Follow-up
We check every sealant we apply in periodic clinical check-ups.
Hygienic Preparation
We make the tooth surface completely sterile for perfect adhesion.
Everything About Fissure Sealants
What you need to know to protect your child's oral health:
At what age is it most appropriate to do?
Doing it as soon as the 6-year and 12-year molars emerge provides maximum protection.
Does it hurt during the procedure?
Certainly not. No abrasion or numbing is required, work is only done on the surface.
Can it also be done for adults?
Yes, it can be applied as a preventive in adults with deep-grooved teeth that have not yet decayed.
Does it stay for life?
It can wear out or fall off over time. Missing parts are easily completed by monitoring in 6-month checks.
What is the difference from a filling?
A filling is done to treat decay; a fissure sealant is done so that decay never forms.
Healthy Teeth, Smiling Futures
Don't let cavities form instead of treating them. Protect the tooth enamel like armor with fissure sealant.

Since it hardens instantly with light, one can eat as soon as the procedure is finished.

When applied with the correct technique, it integrates with the tooth and makes leakage impossible.
It is primarily recommended for molars (chewing teeth) because they are the ones with the highest risk of decay.
Certainly yes; the sealant does not protect other surfaces and spaces of the tooth, it only protects the chewing surface.
