The decision to select asphalt pavement for parking lots, streets, highways and driveways is a sound one. Asphalt pavement is economical and fast to install and repair, but it is also surprisingly durable and attractive. However, asphalt pavement will not last forever. Corrosive chemicals, salt, automotive fluids and the sun's rays can all contribute to the deterioration of asphalt pavement. If you want to slow the rate at which your pavement deteriorates, the best thing you can do is to ensure that your sealcoating is maintained properly. Sealcoating is not a permanent coating; fresh sealant will need to be applied periodically. Your contractor can tell you how often your particular pavement will require new sealcoating. However, it is equally important that your contractor uses the appropriate ingredients that are essential to …show more content…

Dental sealants are used to fill pits and fissures on the occlusal, or chewing, surfaces of the premolars and molars to help protect them from carious lesions and tooth decay (“Dental Sealants”, 2016). Posterior teeth that are selected for placement of sealants are either newly erupted, when occlusal surface is deep and irregular, and have a history of dental caries (Wilkins, 621). So it is very important, especially for children, to get sealants placed as soon as their molars erupt in order to lower their risk for childhood caries. However, there are many factors that have caused children to be withheld from radiographic screenings and treatment; one major factor is parents not being able to afford the treatment. But, one thing that has helped many children get sealants placed is a school sealant programs; funded by the Centers for Disease Control.

In South Carolina, school sealants programs have been helping save high caries risk teeth since

They can be identified by the distinctive light-colored bands or “ribbons” that encircle their neck, each foreflipper, and hips. Adult males are the most striking, having a dark brown to black pelage with white ribbons, while adult females range from silvery-grey to dark brown with paler ribbons.

Porous asphalt is the best solution since it has an attractive appearance, allows for water drainage, and has a surface that can be marked with parking spaces.
