“…Regarding laser treatment, the results of the present study were comparable with, Borsatto and colleagues (2001) (66) , Sancakli et al, (2011) (67) , Topaloglu et al, (2013) (68) , Fumes et al, (2017) (69) and Shingare et al, (2021) (70) who found that Er: YAG laser treatment showed the highest microleakage scores compared to conventional acid-etching. This finding may be also related to the formation of enamel microcracks.…”

Objectives:The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of enamel pre-treatment with: 37% phosphoric acid-etching or self-etching adhesive and Er:YAG Laser (2940nm) on shear bond strength, microleakage and penetration depth of a fluoride-releasing resin-based pit and fissure sealant applied to sound premolars.Methods: Seventy-two sound premolars were allocated randomly into 3 groups according to enamel pretreatment protocol. The experimental groups included: Group I: 37% phosphoric acidetching, Group II: self-etching adhesive, Group III: Er:YAG Laser treatment. Each group was divided into two subgroups (A: shear bond strength, B: microleakage and penetration depth). Shear bond strength test was performed using Universal testing machine. Microleakage and penetration depth were tested after thermocycling (500×, 5-55°C, dwell time: 30s) and dye penetration method. Samples were assessed under Stereo-microscope with a magnification of ×40. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's post hoc test was used to analyze data.Results: Shear bond strength and microleakage results showed that there was statistically significant difference among different groups while penetration depth results showed there was no statistically significant difference among all groups.Conclusions: Conventional acid etching was the best pretreatment method prior to resin-based fissure sealants in terms of bond strength and microleakage.

“…It has also been demonstrated that the use of bonding agent substantially decreases the incidence of microleakage, even on a tooth surface contaminated with saliva [17,45]. In the present study, the application of a bonding agent was followed by the application of flowable composite material; consistent with the other studies [17,40] examining the incidence of microleakage following fissure sealant application, the incidence of microleakage-although variable across the study groups-was within the acceptable limits.…”

“…In addition to the results obtained by Gillet et al [41] and Dixit et al [42] reported that the incidence of microleakage was lower in groups treated with flowable composite materials in conjunction with bonding agents compared to groups treated without bonding agents Two other studies provided further support for this technique, reporting that the use of pit and fissure sealants in conjunction with bonding agents increases the efficacy of the sealant [43,44].

“…Therefore, instead of removing caries and restoring teeth with fillings, a surface preparation is performed on the enamel, followed by the application of a pit and fissure sealant. Fissurotomy and enameloplasty are frequently the preferred techniques for this purpose [55]. Given the expensive nature of such techniques as laser and microabrasion, it is believed that the accessibility of fissurotomy and enameloplasty makes them more favorable options.…”

“…Preparation of the fissure by enameloplasty or burs has come to the forefront as a technique that allows deeper penetration of the acid and the sealant and that increases retention by enlarging the surface area; some studies have reported decreased incidence of microleakage in teeth undergoing surface preparation [9,16]. In contrast, some studies have reported no significant benefit of surface preparation [17][18][19].…”

Pit and fissure sealants play an essential role in preventive dentistry. This study evaluates the microleakage levels of a new and colored flowable composite applied as a sealant after three preparation techniques. A total of 24 non-carious mandibular permanent molars with deep pits and fissures were included in the study. Pit and fissures were prepared with 37% phosphoric acid, tungsten carbide bur and fissurotomy burs (SS WHITE Dental, New Jersey, USA) using conventional, enameloplasty and fissurotomy techniques. All samples were thermocycled following the placement of Rainbow Flow (PPH CERKAMED Wojciech Pawłowski, Poland) as a sealant and sections were taken after immersion in methylene blue dye. The microleakage levels of the samples were examined under a stereomicroscope (Olympus SZX-7 Olympus SZ-61 Stereo Microscope) at 2.8× magnification to analyze the dye penetration of the flowable composite. The 144 sections were examined and scoring for microleakage was done by examining the dye penetration from the occlusal border to the base of the fissure. Considering all sections regardless of the preparation technique, it was found that 16.6%of the sections have no leakage. Regarding the microleakage scores, the mean score of the conventional group was 1.87 ± 0.98, the mean score of the enameloplasty group was 1.88 ± 1.14, and the mean score of the fissurotomy group was 1.81 ± 1.1. The median scores of the conventional, enameloplasty and fissurotomy groups were 2, 2 and 1.5, respectively. The present study reports no difference between the microleakage level of a colored flowable composite material used as a pit and fissure sealant following three fissure preparation techniques and supports the clinical use of this material.

Context: Literature has no consensus over the utility of enameloplasty before fissure sealant placement. Aim: The objective of the study was to explore the effect of enameloplasty using a scanned electron microscope on the adaptability of resin-modified glass ionomer versus flowable resin-based sealants. Settings and Design: An in vitro, experimental study was done from July to November 2017 at the NED University and Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi, Pakistan. Materials and Methods: An in vitro experimental study was done, for which twenty extracted human molars and premolars were selected. They were divided into two groups on the basis of sealant type (resin-modified glass ionomer versus flowable resin-based sealant). The groups were further subdivided on the basis whether these were subjected to enameloplasty or not. All specimens were thermocycled, sectioned, dried, and gold sputtered before inspection under a scanning electron microscope (×50). Statistical Analysis Used: The adaptability of the sealant material in the tooth fissures was assessed on an ordinal scale. SPSS version 23.0 was used for data analysis. Mann–Whitney U-test and ordinal regression were applied at 0.05 level of significance. Results: There were no statistically significant differences between adaptability scores achieved with resin-modified glass ionomer-based sealant and flowable resin-based sealant (P = 0.96). Moreover, enameloplasty resulted in inferior adaptability of the two sealant materials (P = 0.02). Conclusions: Enameloplasty has shown to exert a negative influence over adaptation of the sealant material into the tooth fissure irrespective of the sealant chemistry.
