What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Retention rate

    * Full retention (FR): The material is fully present on the occlusal surfaces * Partially lost (PL): The material is present, but as a result of either wear or loss of the material, part of the previously sealed fissure, was exposed. * Totally lost (TL): No trace of the material to be detected on the surface

    Time frame: Change from baseline at 3, 6, 12 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Caries formation

    Decayed: If the explorer caught on the tooth after insertion into the fissures

    Time frame: Change from baseline at 3, 6, 12 months
