They wear off gradually. Not it won't hurt. Do your regular brushing.
My question is: why didn't he just reseal it while you were in the chair? It takes all of 30secs to apply sealant to a tooth. Instead you have to return in 3 wks? Makes no sense.
No it doesn't hurt, they just paint it on, and it isn't meant to last forever either.
Had it done myself.
