Cleaning the tooth surface
The doctor gently removes soft plaque and biofilm from fissures with special paste and a soft brush.
Fissure sealing for children in Odesa – iDentity Clinic & Lab
Fissure sealing is an effective way to protect young permanent and primary teeth from caries. Natural pits and grooves on chewing teeth are often too narrow and deep for a child's brush to remove food debris and soft plaque.
At iDentity, the procedure uses special flowable sealants that fill every hard-to-reach micro-space. The material evens the tooth surface, blocks bacteria, and releases fluoride and calcium ions for years.
The procedure is completely painless, needs no drill or anesthesia, and feels like a light, interesting game to the child.

When fissure sealing is chosen
How fissure sealing differs from a regular filling
The main difference is that sealing is purely preventive and preserves intact tooth tissue without preparation.
Here is how this affects treatment:
- The dentist does not remove healthy tooth structure — sealant is placed on a previously cleaned surface.
- Sealants are highly flowable and penetrate the finest micro-cracks where no filling can reach.
- The material releases fluoride for a long time, strengthening immature dentin and enamel from within.
- The process takes only 10–15 minutes per tooth and causes no unpleasant sensations.
When another option makes sense
If during the exam and detailed fissure assessment the pediatric dentist finds that:
- caries has already penetrated enamel and formed a cavity — full treatment and a filling are needed;
- infection has reached the pulp through advanced decay, requiring root canal treatment;
- fissures are open, smooth, and self-clean well during brushing — remineralization or fluoride alone may be enough.
Only perfectly healthy tissue can be sealed. The doctor decides after examination.

FAQ
FAQ about fissure sealing
No — it is completely painless. The tooth is not drilled, so anesthesia and a handpiece are not needed.
Protective sealant stays on the surface for 2–5 years; enamel underneath fully matures and becomes strong.
Most often the first and second permanent molars and primary molars with deep anatomy.
At routine check-ups the pediatric dentist assesses the sealant and can easily renew the layer if needed.
No — only a completely healthy tooth can be sealed airtight. If there is decay, it must be treated first.
