Retention Rate of Self-etch Resin Based Sealant With and Without Prior Sandblasting

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The aim of the study is to clinically assess the effect of sandblasting prior to self-etch resin based sealant on its retention after one year follow up.

Official Title
-----------------
Retention Rate of Self-etch Resin Based Sealant With and Without Prior Sandblasting Versus Total Etch Resin Based Sealant in High Caries Risk Patients After One Year Follow up

Conditions
-----------------
Caries; Initial, Pit and Fissure Caries

Intervention / Treatment
-----------------
* Procedure: Self etch Pit and fissure sealant application (prevent seal)
* Procedure: Self etch Pit and fissure sealant application (prevent seal) with prior sandblasting
* Procedure: Total etch resin based sealant ultraseal xt


Participation Criteria
=================
Eligibility Criteria
-----------------
Inclusion Criteria: Patients who have existing pits and fissures that are anatomically deep and caries susceptible. Stained pits and fissures with minimum decalcification of opacification and no softness at the base of the fissure (ICDAS 1 and 2). Exclusion Criteria: An individual with no previous caries experience and well coalesced pits and fissures. Partially erupted teeth. Teeth with cavitation or caries of the dentin. Teeth with dental fluorosis, Hypocalcification

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Retention rate | •Full retention (FR): the material was fully present on the occlusal surfaces •Partially lost (PL): the material was present, but as a result of either wear or loss of the material, part of a previously sealed pit or fissure, or both, was exposed. •Totally lost (TL): no trace of the material was detected on the surface. | Change from baseline at 3, 6, 12 months |
