“…3,4 Organic remnants, as well as the fissures' anatomical constrictions and aprismatic enamel structure can hinder optimal etching and sealing of fissures. [5][6][7][8] However, technique errors and moisture contamination are still the major reason for sealant failure. [9][10][11][12][13][14] Sealing partially erupted molar teeth is a demanding procedure and in most cases is carried out using cotton roll isolation.…”

“…It is also recommended to apply fissure sealants to molars that have deep and jagged fissures, because these are very difficult to keep clean even when good oral hygiene is practiced. By the greater portion of published studies of fissure sealants have evaluated improvements in the respective materials and application techniques in vitro (Garcia-Godoy & Borba de Araujo 1994; Bottenberg et al 1996;Kersten et al 2001;Reinhardt et al 2004). Furthermore, a number of prospective clinical studies have been conducted to assess the survival rate of fissure sealants which had been applied by one or two dentists (Wendt & Koch;Vehkalahti et al 1991;Forss et al 1994;Koch et al 1997;Perreira et al 2001).…”

In spite of a high prevalence of fissure sealants there is an unequal caries experience among 12-year-old children from different educational strata. To improve this situation, persons important to promotion of dental health should do all their part to ensure that fissure sealants are applied to permanent teeth as early as possible, especially when children have caries experience in their primary dentition.

“…Immediate bond failure between sealant and enamel is mostly attributed to saliva contamination of the enamel during and/or after enamel-etching procedure [59,[80][81][82]. The low ability of phosphoric acid etchant to penetrate the total fissure depth, independently of the acid viscosity, has been cited as a causative factor as well [83]. Surfactant components have been included into etchants to increase and enhance the penetration, but no research results on their efficiency are available.…”

Resin sealants are accepted as an effective procedure for controlling fissure decay in primary and permanent teeth. At the same time, increased use has been reported in resin composite restoratives in posterior teeth as substitute for amalgam.Enamel acid etching is considered the most appropriate surface treatment to ensure retention of the resinous materials both on primary and permanent enamel. From the research point of view, very few studies evaluate the bonding of resinous materials on primary enamel. The parameters attributed to the bonding are usually assigned on tissues of permanent teeth and the results are merely extrapolated to primary analogues.However, chemical, physiological and micromorphological differences between primary and permanent enamel have been well established. Therefore, although bonding on primary enamel may follow the principles of adhesion of resinous materials on the hard dental tissues, the individual features of the deciduous enamel make necessary the study of the subject as a separate issue.The necessity of enamel cleaning prior to the bonding, the influence of various acid treatments on regions of the primary enamel, the bonding efficiency of resinous materials on enamel through adhesive systems and clinical data related to the retention rates of the materials are described in the present chapter. Primary Enamel;;In primary teeth the coronal part is covered by a thin enamel layer which is generally less mineralized than permanent enamel [1]. In this respect, the area of the organic/inorganic interface is greater in deciduous enamel, which contains more exogenous organic material [2]. The reduced time available for enamel maturation may account for the relatively lower mineral levels.As in the permanent enamel, the mineralization level of the deciduous enamel is characterized by the gradient from the inside to outside, albeit with a smaller relative increase [1]. A neonatal distinct line is also obvious in the primary enamel which divides the less and the more hypomineralized enamel formed before and after birth, respectively.As a consequence of the features described, the permeability of the deciduous is higher than that of the permanent enamel [1]; the latter also suggests higher porosity of the primary enamel, which leads to higher pore volume [2].
