Clinical Efficacy of Different Fissure Sealant Materials in the Newly Erupted Non-Carious First Permanent Molars

"Fuji® II LC is a resin modified glass ionomer contained, fluoride releasing and light-cured material. Since the product is tolerant to moisture and saliva, it's used for fissure sealant of newly erupted teeth.~Test 1 newly erupted first permanent molars were cleaned with a pumice paste using a bristle brush and isolated with cotton rolls. Then, 20% cavity conditioner was applied to all surfaces of the tooth for 10 seconds.The tooth surface was rinsed with water and dried. Thereafter, Fuji® II LC was applied to the pits and fissures on the tooth surface using a brush. Then, the varnish was applied and cured according to the manufacturer's instructions."

"Clinpro™ XT Varnish is a resin modified glass ionomer containing, fluoride-releasing, light-cured varnish. Since the product is tolerant to moisture and saliva, it is used for fissure sealant of newly erupted teeth. The product can be recharged with fluoride using fluoride-containing products.~Test 2 newly erupted first permanent molars were cleaned with a pumice paste using a bristle brush and isolated with cotton rolls. Then, 35% phosphoric acid was applied to all surfaces of the tooth for 15 seconds.Then the tooth surface was rinsed with water and dried. Thereafter, Clinpro™ XT Varnish was applied in compliance with the manufacturers' instructions."

"Beautiful Flow is a Giomer contained, fluoride releasing and light cured material. The product contains pre-reacted glass ionomer particles (PRG). It is a high water resistant material. It is used for fissure sealant.~Test 3 newly erupted first permanent molars were cleaned with a pumice paste using a bristle brush and isolated with cotton rolls. Then, 7% phosphoric acid was applied to all surfaces of the tooth for 10 seconds. Then the tooth surface was rinsed with water and dried. Afterwards, a two-stage self-etch adhesive system was applied. Thereafter, Beautiful Flow was applied in compliance with the manufacturers' instructions."

"Fuji Triage® is a new generation glass ionomer containing with low viscosity, high fluoride content and light curing materials. Since the product is tolerant of moisture and saliva, it is used for fissure sealant of newly erupted teeth.~Control newly erupted first permanent molars were cleaned with a pumice paste using a bristle brush and isolated with cotton rolls. Then, 20% cavity conditioner was applied to all surfaces of the tooth for 10 seconds.Then the tooth surface was rinsed with water and dried. Thereafter,Fuji Triage® was applied to the pits and fissures on the tooth surface using a brush. Thereafter, the varnish was applied and cured according to the manufacturer's instructions."
