Oral Hygiene Instructions
Step #1 for Sealants
Place bite block and dry angle in mouth.
Step #2 for Sealants
Place cotton rolls by the tongue to help isolate the tooth tissue
Step #3 for Sealants
Dry off teeth with air
Step #4 for Sealants
Place etch and let etch sit for 15 seconds
Step #5 for Sealants
Clean off tooth with water and HVE and dry off with air after
Step #6 for Sealants
Scrub bond into tooth for 5-10 seconds. Then completely dry the etch
Step #7 for Sealants
Place Sealant material on the grooves of the teeth.
Step #8 for Sealants
Cure for 30-60 seconds, then check it is solid with the explorer, check with floss to make sure no sealant material is stuck interproximal.
