    Purpose: The objectives of this study were to investigate the fluoride levels in plaque and saliva before and after applying fluoride-containing pit and fissure sealants, and compare the fluoride release of 2 types of sealants at the different time... intervals. Methods: Eighteen children ages 6 to 9 years were randomly divided into 2 groups: Group 1 - sealant containing fluorosilicate glass (Helioseal-F); and group 2-sealant containing methacryloyl fluoride-methyl methacrylate copolymer (Teethmate-F

    Abstract The aim of this community‐oriented study was to evaluate different methods to prevent fissure caries. The following products and measures were tested: 1) glass ionomer cement (GIC) applied by dentist; 2) same material applied by short term... (3 days) trained personnel (teachers); 3) application of a 0.5% HF solution three times; 4) an established autopolymerized resin based sealant (Delton). The study was performed in Bangkok, Thailand, a city in a developing country experiencing

    © 2018, SEAMEO TROPMED Network. All rights reserved. Glass-ionomer sealant is used to seal teeth pits and fissures in order to prevent caries formation and release fluoride. It is made by mixing powder and liquid, where the powder contains fluoride... and the liquid enables it to penetrate into small pits and fissures. The powder to liquid (P/L) ratio can determine the efficiency of the sealant. We aimed to determine the amount of fluoride released by varying P/L ratios in order to obtain the best penetration

    sealant, a resin material, which is applied on the occlusal pit and fissure surfaces of the teeth as a protective layer has been commonly used to prevent dental caries. However, the microbial effect on food residue is found to be a major cause... of microleakage of sealant and secondary caries. Several types of antimicrobial agents were introduced to increase the caries preventive effect of dental sealants. Vanillin, the main component of flavoring agent vanilla, has been found to have antimicrobial

    recently to be associated with the pathogenesis of ECC. One of the general approaches currently used for the prevention of ECC is the application of dental sealant to occlusal (chewing surface) pits and fissures of caries-susceptible teeth. Many types... of dental sealants have been extensively used and various antimicrobial agents were introduced to dental sealants to increase their caries preventive effect. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antimicrobial effect of vanillin incorporated resin
