“…Our study demonstrates that Fuji VII is useful as a pit and fissure sealant for children and effectively prevents caries. We found no statistically significant difference in the incidence of caries between Fuji VII and Concise sealants whatever in LR group or in HR group, which was consistent with studies on related materials 15,32) . There might be several interpretations.…”

The purpose was to compare the retention and caries preventive effect of Fuji VII and a resin-based sealant in children at high risk (HR) and low risk (LR) of caries. Fifty-seven schoolchildren (150 teeth) with completely erupted bilateral permanent first molars were included. The study was a split-mouth, randomized trial. Sealant retention and caries were evaluated after 6 months, 1 year and 2 years. After 2 years, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of caries between Fuji VII and Concise in the HR and LR groups. With Concise, LR children were less likely to have dental caries than HR. With Fuji VII, there was no difference in caries incidence between LR and HR. Retention of Concise was superior to that of Fuji VII. Our results suggest that Fuji VII and Concise sealants had similar caries preventive effects in children at high and low risk of caries.

“…In the present study, rubber dam isolation was not used, as had been reported for many other sealant studies. 20,27,29,30,31,32 Th is deviat ion from the goi ng protocol for resin-based procedures is justified since it was shown that rubber dam does not improve the retention of resin-based sealants. 33 It was possible to blind treatment for the children, as only one kind of treatment was performed at each of the schools.…”

Abstract:The aim was to test the null-hypothesis that there is no difference in the cumulative survival rate of retained composite resin (CR) sealants and a high-viscosity glass-ionomer Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART) sealant in first permanent molars calculated according to the traditional and the modified retention assessment criteria over a period of 3 years. This cluster-randomized controlled clinical trial consisted of 123 schoolchildren, 6-7-years-old. At baseline, high-caries risk pits and fissures of fully erupted first permanent molars were treated with CR and ART sealants. Evaluations were performed after 0.5, 1, 2 and 3 years. Retention was scored for free-smooth surface and for each of three sections into which the occlusal surface had been divided. The modified criterion differed from the traditional in that it determined an occlusal sealant to be a failure when at least one section contained no visible sealant material. Data were analysed according to the PHREG model with frailty correction, Wald-test, ANOVA and t-test, using the Jackknife procedure. The cumulative survival rates for retained CR and ART sealants in free-smooth and occlusal surfaces for both criteria were not statistically significantly different over the 3 years. A higher percentage of retained CR sealants on occlusal surfaces was observed at longer evaluations. Cumulative survival rates were statistically significantly lower for the modified criterion in comparison to the traditional. The modified retention assessment criterion should be used in future sealant-retention studies.

“…Thus, better retention results are expected in Bis-GMA based than in GIC-based materials, either conventional or resin-modified GIC used as sealant [11][12][13][14][15][16]. Although a macroscopic loss of GIC sealant occurs, small portions of the material stays on the fissure bottom releasing fluoride, which perhaps assures protection and prevents caries development even in cases that the sealant seems to disappear clinically [17].…”

Objective: To compare the retention and superficial characteristics between a new resin-modified glass ionomer sealant and resin sealant. In addition, the teeth sealed were compared to partially erupted first molars (control group) without sealing in relation to the incidence of dental caries. Material and Methods: Initially, 31 children aged 6-8 years participated in this study. The study children showed caries history, but had at least two healthy first molars. A total of 114 teeth were randomly divided into three groups: Clinpro (n=36), Fluroshield (n=38), and control (n=40). The two sealants were applied under relative isolation after previous prophylaxis and enamel etching with phosphoric acid 35% (15s). Clinical evaluation was performed by two calibrated examiners. They evaluated the retention and surface characteristics of the occlusal surface. Results: Fluroshield® showed significantly greater retention than ClinproTM Varnish® XT (p=0.002). However, the performance analysis of the success and failure of retention presented no significant difference between the materials (p=0.141). Concerning to the surface characteristics, Fluroshield performed better than Clinpro after analyzing the marginal deterioration, marginal discoloration, and superficial discoloration (p<0.05). The surface texture of the materials under study was similar (p=0.071). Sealed groups (Clinpro=Fluroshield) showed similar performance in the prevention of dental caries, which was significantly lower than that of control group (p=0.001). Conclusion: Both sealants, Fluroshield® and Clinpro TM Varnish® XT were effective in preventing caries lesion within 6 months, although Fluroshield sealant showed better clinical retention.

The success rates of a glass ionomer cement and a resin-based fissure sealant placed by fifth-year undergraduate dental students

Abstract: The retention of GIC sealants was markedly inferior to the retention of resin-based sealants; however, GIC when used as a pit and fissure sealant was slightly more effective in preventing occlusal caries.
