About this study

Sealants were applied on sound permanent first molars by "press finger technique" and carious deciduous molars that required either class I or class II restorations were restored according to manufacturers' recommendations in order to caries prevention and control.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Volunteers that having at least two permanent first molars of opposite sides of the mouth, erupted in the oral cavity, caries-free and high-risk disease (presence of white spots, history of caries, plaque in smooth surfaces and gingivitis);
  • Children who had one or two bilateral matched pairs of carious deciduous molars that required either class I or class II restorations.

Exclusion criteria

  • Children who did not meet the minimum requirements for the achievement of sealants or parents / guardians did not agree to participate;
  • No history of spontaneous pulpal pain.

    Time frame: 6-month

    Criteria established by Frencken et al. (1998) was used.

  2. Number of the teeth with good restoration and caries absence.

    Time frame: 6-month

    Criteria established by Frencken et al. (1998) was used.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Frequency of loss of the sealing material and prevention of caries.

    Time frame: 6-month

    Criteria established by Frencken et al. (1998) was used.
