“…In vivo longitudinal clinical trials using nationally produced GICs are few [39,40] and the present study compared the Brazilian Maxxion R ® material with the gold standard Ketac Molar ® and verified that Ketac Molar ® had much better result regarding the retention of the material when evaluated six and eight months after application. Unlike this study, which presented better results for one of the materials analyzed, a study carried out in Latvia analyzed for two years the sealing of class I cavities with Chem-Flex™ glass ionomer.…”

Objective: To compare retention, preventive effectiveness and longevity of two different highviscosity glass-ionomer sealants Ketac Molar ® and Maxxion R ® in the sealing of erupting and out-of-occlusion first permanent molar in children aged 5-7 years. Material and Methods: Children with past caries experience with healthy erupting first permanent molar were included in the study. Teeth 16 and 46 were sealed with Ketac Molar ® and teeth 26 and 36 were sealed with Maxxion R ®. After 8 months, the retention of sealants was evaluated using the following criteria: total retention; presence of sealant in two thirds of the occlusal surface; presence of sealant in one third of the surface; and total absence of the sealant. Results: Statistical difference between materials was observed, and Ketac Molar ® retention was superior to that of Maxxion R ® (p<0.05). Regarding the development of caries in sealed first permanent molar, none of the teeth sealed with Ketac Molar ® or Maxxion R ® developed caries lesion. Conclusion: Ketac Molar ® retention is significantly superior to that of Maxxion R ® , but the preventive effectiveness in the development of carious lesions is similar for both, which is extremely interesting for the field of public health, since the cost of the material is significantly lower.

The number of publications reporting on the survival of ART sealants and ART restorations has increased considerably in recent years. A systematic investigation of their longevity is therefore warranted. Based on three exclusion criteria, a literature search in the electronic libraries Pubmed and Medline revealed 28 eligible publications for inclusion in a meta-analysis. High mean survival rates for single-surface ART restorations using high-viscosity glass-ionomer in primary dentitions over 3 years were found (95% after 1 year to 86% after 3 years). These rates were statistically significantly higher than for those of multiple-surface ART restorations in primary dentitions (p<0.0001). High mean survival rates for single-surface ART restorations using high-viscosity glass-ionomer in permanent dentitions over 6 years were found (97% after 1 year to 72% after 6 years). The mean annual failure rates for single-surface ART restorations using high-viscosity glass-ionomer in primary and permanent dentitions and for multiple-surface ART restorations in primary dentitions are 4.7%, 4.7% and 17%, respectively. The number of studies reporting on the retention and caries preventive effect of ART sealants was low. It is concluded that single-surface ART restorations using high-viscosity glass-ionomer in both primary and permanent dentitions show high survival rates. Medium-viscosity glass-ionomer should not be used for ART restorations.

“…Before maximal benefit of the treatment can be ascertained, it has been suggested that the appropriateness of ART should also be tested in populations with high caries risk and among patients with rampant caries [20,21]. However, only two such studies with small sample sizes have been reported from industrialized countries [22,23].…”
