Advanced Protection Against Cavities
At Van Orman Dental, we take a proactive approach to cavity prevention, offering Preventive Resin Restorations (PRRs) as a minimally invasive way to protect teeth from decay. PRRs are ideal for sealing deep grooves in molars, preventing bacteria buildup while preserving natural tooth structure.
What Are Preventive Resin Restorations?
Preventive Resin Restorations are a combination of dental sealants and composite fillings designed to protect molars with deep pits and fissures. Unlike traditional dental fillings, PRRs require little to no drilling and preserve more of your natural tooth.
- Protects teeth from decay without extensive drilling
- Seals deep grooves where plaque and bacteria accumulate
- Blends naturally with tooth color for an invisible finish
- Long-lasting protection with a durable resin material
Who Can Benefit from Preventive Resin Restorations?
- Children & Teens: Ideal for newly erupted permanent molars to prevent early cavities.
- Adults with Deep Grooves: If your teeth have deep pits prone to trapping food and bacteria, PRRs can help.
- Patients at Higher Cavity Risk: If you frequently experience cavities, PRRs provide an extra layer of protection.
How Are Preventive Resin Restorations Applied?
Cleaning & Preparation:- Teeth are thoroughly cleaned to remove plaque & bacteria A mild solution is applied to slightly roughen the surface for better adhesion
Resin Application:- A tooth-colored resin is carefully placed into deep grooves & pits. The material is smoothed and shaped for a natural look
Curing & Final Touches:- A special curing light hardens the resin for durability. Polishing ensures a smooth, comfortable bite
Benefits of Preventive Resin Restorations
- Stronger, more durable than sealants
- Requires minimal to no tooth removal
