I used to look for puncture sites when I noticed some sealant spray, but I don't bother most of the time any more. I haven't yet seen a puncture that sealed yet compromised the casing enough to show a bulge. I still inspect my tires occasionally, but I'm mostly looking at cuts and wear, and can't recall coming across embedded debris.
