Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the retention of different pit and fissure sealants on the first permanent molars over a period of one year.Materials and methods: In this study, a total of 40 children with all first permanent molars erupted received four different pit and fissure sealants. The children were evaluated at 6 and 12 months.Results: The data was subjected to Chi-square test and Kaplan Meier survival analysis. The p-value was calculated using Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank test.Conclusion: The retention rates of resin-based sealants were superior to that of glass ionomer sealant.How to cite this article: Kumaran P.

“…It has been suggested that the retention of dental sealants can be related to wear resistance of the material, position of the teeth in the mouth, clinical skills of the operator, and the age of the patient 27 . Moreover, the length of the studies could also explain the distinct results found in the literature.…”

ResumoIntrodução: Pouco se sabe sobre a influência do risco de cárie na retenção de selantes oclusais. Objetivo: Avaliar as taxas de retenção de um cimento de ionômero de vidro modificado por resina utilizado como selante oclusal em primeiros molares permanentes de escolares de 6-8 anos, e analisar a influência do risco de cárie na taxa de retenção do selante, durante um período de 24 meses. Material e método: A aplicação do selante foi realizada em consultório odontológico no início do estudo, após as crianças serem alocados no grupo de alto risco (AR) ou baixo risco (BR) de cárie. Os exames foram realizados pelo mesmo dentista calibrado em 0, 6, 12, 18 e 24 meses. As taxas de retenção foram estimadas e o método de Kaplan-Meier foi utilizado para estimar as probabilidades de sobrevivência. A comparação entre os grupos AR e BR foi avaliada pelos testes de Wilcoxon e log-rank. Resultado: Os resultados mostraram que 14% dos dentes selados apresentaram perda total (16% para AR e 12% para BR) e 46% apresentaram perda parcial durante o estudo (51% de AR e 41% para BR), em relação a amostra no início do estudo. Nenhuma diferença pode ser demonstrada pela análise de sobrevivência entre os grupos AR e BR (p> 0,05). Conclusão: O risco de cárie não influenciou as taxas de retenção de um cimento de ionômero de vidro modificado por resina usado como selante oclusal em escolares de 6-8 anos de idade.Descritores: Escolares; cárie; risco; análise de sobrevivência. AbstractIntroduction: Little is known whether caries risk influence occlusal sealants retention. Objective: To determine the retention rates (RR) of the resin-modified glass ionomer cement used as occlusal sealant in permanent first molars of 6-8-year old schoolchildren and to analyze the influence of caries risk at baseline on the RR of the sealant, over a 24-month period. Material and method: The sealant application was performed in a dental office at the beginning of the study, after children being allocated into high caries risk group (HR) and low caries risk group (LR). The examinations were performed by the same calibrated dentist at 0, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. Retention rates were estimated, the Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the survival probabilities; and the comparison between HR and LR groups was evaluated by Wilcoxon and log-rank test. Result: The results showed that 14% of sealed teeth showed total loss (16% for HR and 12% for LR) and 46% showed partial loss during the study (51% for HR and 41% for LR), in relation to the baseline sample. No difference could be demonstrated by the survival analysis between HR and LR groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: Caries risk did not influence the retention rates of a resin-modified glass ionomer cement used as occlusal sealant in 6-8-year old schoolchildren.

“…The total retention rate was less than 2% for both materials after 5 years. This low total retention rate can be explained by the long‐term clinical application and low wear resistance of these materials (10, 15). Other possible factors that can explain this fact are: type of sealant, position of the teeth in the mouth, clinical skills of the operator, and the age of the patient (4).…”

“…In the early 1990s, resin was incorporated to improve the mechanical properties of this material, which led to the development of resin‐modified glass ionomer (RMGI) and polyacid‐modified resin. These materials were then studied as a fissure sealant (14–19). Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the retention and effectiveness of both RMGI and a conventional glass‐ionomer cement, used as fissure sealant, on the prevention of occlusal caries 5 years after placement.…”
