40% of kids will have at least one cavity by the time they start school, usually due to poor oral hygiene and eating and drinking lots of sugary things. It's critical to teach kids good oral health habits early on and to help them brush their teeth until they are able to do it themselves, but it can still be tricky for them to clean out the crevices in their molars. ๐Ÿฆท That's where sealants come in.

Dental sealants are a layer of clear plastic that we brush onto the chewing surfaces of teeth to keep cavity-causing plaque and bacteria out. Sealants reduce childhood tooth decay in the back teeth by as much as 80%, which is why they've been such a popular treatment since the 1960s. The application process is quick, painless, and easy and can be done within a regular appointment. ๐Ÿ˜Š

We recommend that kids get sealants as soon as their first adult molars erupt, which is usually around age 6. The earlier, the better, but sealants aren't only for young children; older kids, teens, and adults can get them too! ๐Ÿ‘

For as long as there have been people, there has been tooth decay, but people in past civilizations didnโ€™t have as many answers about what caused their tooth problems as we do now. That led to some very strange beliefs about dental health. One of the most common was the โ€œtooth worm.โ€ ๐Ÿ˜ฒ

As far back as 5000 B.C. in ancient Sumeria, people were blaming their cavities on tooth worms. They are mentioned in ancient Chinese scripts from 1500 B.C. too, and the Roman Empire and medieval Europeans also believed there were worms gnawing at their teeth.

Where did this idea come from? ๐Ÿค” There are a few theories. Dental roots could maybe be described as worm-like, so people who didnโ€™t know better mightโ€™ve assumed that was the case. They were also familiar with a variety of parasitic worms, including guinea worms in drinking water. They couldโ€™ve assumed something similar was affecting their teeth. They also used henbane seed treatments, and the ash of burned henbane seeds resembles worms.

Although oral bacteria is something we must fight daily by brushing and flossing, tooth worms are, thankfully, a myth. ๐Ÿ™Œ The real culprit behind most cavities is sugar!
