Aims: The primary aim of this study is to evaluate and to compare the retention of two different pit and fissure sealants on permanent mandibular 1st molar teeth. Materials and Methods: A total of 110 children aged between 6-9 years were selected. In each child, Aegis with amorphous calcium phosphate sealant was applied on the permanent mandibular 1st molar of the right side while Delton the illuminating sealant was applied on the permanent mandibular 1st molar of the left side, keeping the permanent maxillary 1st molars as control. The treated teeth were evaluated for retention of sealants at 3, 6 and 12 months interval. Statistical Analysis Used: The statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney U-test and Chisquare tests and Statistical Package for the Social Science version 15.0 statistical analysis software. Result: The results were showed that retention and loss of sealant from the occlusal surfaces of the sealed teeth in both groups was maximum between 3 and 6 months. Conclusion: Though statistically no significant difference was observed between the two groups, sealant with ACP showed better retention than the illuminating sealant. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
