Clinical and Cost-effectiveness of Fluoride Varnish Versus Resin Based Sealant (Part 2)

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The aim of the present study is determine the cost-effectiveness, clinical- effectiveness, acceptability and adverse effect of resin sealants versus the fluoride varnish for the prevention of dental caries on newly erupted permanent molars.

Detailed Description
-----------------
A Cochrane systematic reviews found low quality evidence supporting Current practice guidelines that recommend the use of Resin based fissure sealant over Fluoride varnish in prevent dental caries. However, they did not address the cost-effectiveness, A more recent systematic review and meta-analysis concluded that no statistical significance difference between Resin based fissure sealant and Fluoride varnish with a high-quality evidence in prevent dental caries. This trial will measure cost effectiveness and clinical effectiveness for resin fissure sealant and fluoride varnish.

Primary Purpose: Prevention
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Interventional Model Description: The study will be randomized, allocation-blinded, two-arm, parallel-group trial. The participants will be randomized on a 1: 1 allocation ratio to receive one of the following interventions: Resin-based fissure sealant FS. Fluoride varnish FV
Masking: None (Open Label)


Arms and Interventions

| Participant Group/Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
| --- | --- |
| Experimental: intervention<br>Fluoride varnish (3M Clinpro White Varnish 5% sodium fluoride).
