*Home>>>Dental Sealants

I just got dental sealants...yesterday and they're irritating the heck out of me!?


i don't feel like eating or drinking much...

are sealants supposed to feel nasty when you close your mouth? please tell me about your experience...i really hate them...

how long will it take approximately for me to get used to them?

HELP! ugh!


P.S. i got them on 7 teeth!

sealants are generally a little messy in the begging! the key is wearing them off. i know it sounds off but a sealant is just that, a composite material in the groves of your teeth. they prevent bactirias from getting deep inside those groves so you dont get decay. often the composte gets in more places than just the groves and it takes time to wear it off, no worries you will be fine in a day or so. also the thing to look into is if the Dr. used whats called a rubber damn, if so you may be having a latex alergy? good luck

You shouldn't be able to feel them at all, they must have been done wrong. I would go back and see your dentist
