Are sealants good for kids at what age should they get them?

It's coffee really bad for you?

Answers:
Yes, they are good. They are placed in virgin teeth.. virgin meaning there is no decay in the tooth and the tooth has no filling. They should be placed on the child's permanent molars as soon as they erupt and even though most insurance companies do not pay for it, I recommend they be placed on the bicuspids as well when they erupt. They do help prevent cavities as they 'seal' the pits and fissures (grooves) in the back teeth. It's not uncommon for children to have the sealants pop off if they are prone to crunching a lot of ice or similar items.. so those types of things should be avoided.

What is the best foundation to cover acne scars on face without being greasy?

I had sealants as a child and never had a cavity until after I had my kids. By then, they'd popped off and I'd never replaced them. Even so, I had 12 cavity free years, and so far (I'm 31) I've only had 2 ever.

anybody else on cymbalta for depression how does it make you feel?

Yes!! Sealants are wonderful & help prevent cavities from getting started in the grooves of the tooth (where the tooth brush can't reach). We always recommend putting sealants on childrens molars as SOON as they come in all the way. They are a painless procedure to have done.
