At Dr. G. Sanchez Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, our mission is to provide you with high-quality dental care

Brushing thoroughly at least twice daily and regular flossing are excellent to help you prevent oral diseases, but a healthy mouth and beautiful smile requires routine general and preventative care. Our practice offers exceptional care that includes regular oral examinations and cleanings. Our hygiene services
include preventative fluoride application and periodontal (gum disease) treatments
designed to help you maintain the beauty and health of your smile.
Prevention is always better than treatment
Sealants are very useful in preventing tooth decay primarily on the back teeth and can save patients money in the long run. Dr. Sanchez and our hygienist can make sealants part of your treatment plan for a healthy mouth.
Sealants are most often placed in children and teenagers, since tooth decay can start soon after teeth come in. But adults can benefit from sealants too, because you never "outgrow" the risk for developing cavities.
A dental sealant is a plastic material that is applied to the chewing surface of a molar or bicuspid tooth. The sealant material flows into the pits and grooves of the teeth, acting as a barrier and protecting enamel by preventing plaque and bacteria from penetrating the enamel in these areas.
