- Had the same thing happen with my youngest—school clinic was a steal, but two sealants popped off during the first year.
- Dentist said "moisture’s the enemy," which I guess is code for "kids can’t sit still."
-
“Insurance didn’t cover the redo since it hadn’t been long enough, so I ended up paying more than I expected.”
- Been there. Definitely felt like I was saving money... until I wasn’t.
- Still, if your kid’s a pro at sitting with their mouth open (unlike mine), maybe you’ll get lucky.
We had similar issues with sealants from the school clinic—two came off in under a year, which surprised me. The dentist blamed moisture too, but honestly, even in their office it’s tricky to keep a kid’s mouth dry long enough. Did anyone have better luck with private practice sealants actually staying put? I’m starting to wonder if technique or materials are just as big a factor as cost.
