Seal America: The Prevention Invention

Seal America is designed to assist health professionals in initiating and implementing a school-based dental sealant program to prevent tooth decay in children. The online manual provides practical guidance for individuals who wish to start a school-based dental sealant program. It also addresses program sustainability and referring students with unmet oral health needs to a dentist. Individuals working in established school-based dental sealant programs may also find the manual of interest as they work to improve specific aspects of their programs.
