Children should get sealants on their permanent molars as soon as the teeth come in -- before decay attacks the teeth. The first permanent molars -- called 6 year molars -- come in between the ages of 5 and 7.The second permanent molars -- 12 year molars -- come in when a child is between 11 and 14 years old.ealants are put on in dentists' offices, clinics, and sometimes in schools. Getting sealants put on is simple and painless. Sealants are painted on as a liquid and quickly harden to form a shield over the tooth.
