Can adults have a fissure sealant?

I am a 23 year old male. I want to get a fissure sealant. I wonder if adults can have a fissure sealant?

Yes, you can. Never too old to have sealants, but insurance usually only covers them up to a certain age.
Yes it is possible.
Sealants are a good preventive measure against decay. This is especially true when the pits and fissures on thebiting surface of the tooth are narrow and deep making them hard to clean with your toothbrush. Do it man.
