The Effect of an Adhesive System on the Retention and Caries Prevention for Fissure Sealants in Permanent Molars

"1. Cotton roll isolation~2. Etching of the enamel surface: 17% phosphoric 15 seconds over the surface to be sealed (Phosphoric etchant gel - Vococid, VOCO)~3. Washing/drying: a 3-1 syringe will be used to rinse all etch material from the toothsurface.~4. Sealant application: a light-curing nano-hybrid fissure sealant material (Grandio Seal; VOCO) will be applied using the applicator tip.~5. Lightcuring: The material will be lightcured for 20 seconds."

Washing/drying: a 3-1 syringe will be used to rinse all etch material from the toothsurface.~4. Adhesive system application: the adhesive system (Futurabond, VOCO) single dose capsule will be applied over the surface to be sealed for 5 seconds using a microbrush. The adhesive system will be air thin dried and lightcured for 10s before sealant placement.~5. Sealant application: a light-curing nano-hybrid fissure sealant material (Grandio Seal; VOCO) will be applied using the applicator tip.~6. Lightcuring: The material will be lightcured for 20 seconds."
