It is estimated that 80% of tooth decay begins in the pits and fissures of teeth. Toothbrush bristles may not be able to completely remove food from those areas.

Fissurotomy (prophylactic odontotomy) is described as a potentially viable means of eliminating deep fissures. Sealants are applied, stressing the importance of good moisture control. ~ Dental professionals can license more videos for their websites at https://member.ToothIQ.com
