āDo adults need dental sealants?ā
I am a 26 year old male. I want to know if adults need dental sealants?

Sealants are materials that make deep grooves in the teeth shallow, therefore, if adults have deep grooves in their teeth, then yes, it will help them keep the teeth clean.
Sealants are commonly for those prior to cavity prone years (youth), but Iām becoming increasingly more supportive of adults (18-30) with pristine teeth to seal deep tooth anatomy!
It's possible. Especially if you have poor oral hygiene and your diet consists of high carbohydrates.
Depends. If you are at high risk of having a cavity and have a high-sugar diet, it will certainly help to get sealants. But if you never have a cavity, you would not need it.
