Protective coatings applied to back teeth to prevent cavities in children.
Looking for dental sealants in Houston, TX? At Rodeo Dental Houston, our experienced dental team provides dental sealants services for patients of all ages — from toddlers to seniors. We accept most insurance plans, Medicaid, and CHIP, and offer flexible payment options for families without coverage.
Texas Medicaid and CHIP verified at the Woodforest front desk
Our Woodforest Blvd front desk pulls up your child's Texas Medicaid or CHIP eligibility before the hygienist calls them back, and we confirm the plan in Spanish if that's what you prefer. You won't sit in the chair wondering whether today's visit is covered.
2
Sibling chairs paired in adjacent 77015 operatories
When two or more siblings are on the schedule, we try to seat them in side-by-side operatories so a younger child can watch an older brother or sister go first. It's a small thing that takes the fear out of a first visit for the 3- and 4-year-olds we see most on Woodforest Blvd.
3
Same-language handoff, no mid-visit translator swap
The person who greets you at the desk, the hygienist who cleans your child's teeth, and Dr. Salameh's assistant all speak the same language you started in. We don't pause treatment to find a Spanish speaker.

Healthy habits start young. Kids who see dentists regularly have fewer problems as adults.
✓
Untreated cavities in baby teeth spread faster than in adult teeth because the enamel is thinner, and a small spot seen at a cleaning today can become a pulp problem by the next school break.
✓
A child's first bad dental experience sets the template for every visit after — anxious kids who get pushed into treatment before they're ready often avoid the chair into adulthood, which is exactly what early, gentle visits are designed to prevent.
✓
Bite and spacing issues are easiest to steer while the jaw is still growing; catching crowding at age 6 or 7 at the same Woodforest office means simpler orthodontic work later instead of extractions in middle school.

Rodeo Dental Houston • Dental Sealants for all ages
What's Included in Your Dental Sealants — Houston
Here's what to expect when you visit Rodeo Dental in Houston, TX for dental sealants:
1.
Tell-show-do chair introduction
Before any instrument enters the mouth, the child is shown the mirror and explorer, allowed to touch each one, and told in plain language what it does — so nothing in the visit is a surprise.
2.
Age-appropriate bitewing or panoramic imaging
For children with all primary teeth in contact, bitewings screen for interproximal decay; for mixed-dentition kids, a panoramic film checks eruption pattern and the developing permanent teeth.
3.
Prophy paste cleaning with fluoride varnish
A soft rubber-cup prophy with child-flavored paste is followed by a 5% sodium fluoride varnish painted directly onto the teeth to harden enamel against early decay.
4.
Pit-and-fissure sealant placement on permanent molars
Newly erupted 6-year and 12-year molars are etched, rinsed, dried, and sealed with a flowable resin to keep food and bacteria out of the deep grooves where cavities start.
5.
Growth and eruption check against dental age
Primary-tooth shedding and permanent-tooth eruption are compared to expected dental age, and any crowding, crossbite, or ectopic eruption is flagged for the orthodontic team in the same office.
6.
Home-care coaching in the parent's language
Brushing technique, fluoride toothpaste amount by age, and snack-frequency guidance are walked through with the parent in English or Spanish before checkout.

Meet Your Houston Team
Professionals ready to help with your dental sealants.
Where exactly is the Woodforest office and how do I get in?
We're at 12620 Woodforest Blvd #490, Houston, TX 77015, in the suite strip just east of Uvalde Road. Parking is right outside the suite door — no garage, no elevator — so a stroller or carseat walks straight in.
Do you take Texas Medicaid and CHIP for kids?
Yes. Our front desk verifies Texas Medicaid and CHIP eligibility on the spot, and we'll do it in Spanish if that's easier. Call (281) 747-8617 before you come in and we'll have the plan confirmed before you park.
Are you open Saturdays for kids' appointments?
Saturdays 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, which is the slot most Galena Park ISD and Channelview ISD parents pick so kids don't miss class. Weekday hours run 9:00 AM–6:00 PM Monday, Tuesday, and Friday, and 10:00 AM–7:00 PM Wednesday and Thursday. Closed Sunday.
If my child needs braces later, do we have to switch offices?
No — orthodontic care is offered right here at the same Woodforest Blvd address, with the same team who's been seeing your child since their first cleaning.

What makes our Houston office unique for dental sealants
Dental Sealants for Houston Families
Our Kids Dentist office sits at 12620 Woodforest Blvd #490, in the stretch between Uvalde Road and Normandy, serving families across the Woodforest, Cloverleaf, and Channelview corridors just inside Beltway 8. Most of our pediatric patients come from the 77015 and 77049 ZIPs — Galena Park ISD and Channelview ISD households where both parents work shift schedules and need a dentist who can see siblings back-to-back.
We're a five-minute drive from the San Jacinto River Park side of Market Street, and a quick hop off I-10 East for families coming in from Jacinto City or Cloverleaf. [Dr. Mary E.
Salameh](/team/dr-mary-e-salameh)'s chair sees a lot of first-ever dental visits for toddlers whose older siblings also come here — the waiting room is set up so a parent can keep eyes on two kids at once, and our front desk handles Texas Medicaid and CHIP eligibility in Spanish without you having to ask twice.
