NCT07504614

Brief Summary

This study aims to evaluate and compare the clinical performance of pre-etched bioactive fissure sealants to conventional RBFS in permanent molars affected by MIH in terms of retention, marginal integrity, caries prevention effect, and sensitivity.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

    Evaluation of sealant retention using the Modified United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria under good light source and using a dental mirror and a straight explorer

    3,6 and 12 months

  • Marginal integrity

    Evaluation for the presence of fractures or gaps in the sealant-tooth interface using the Modified United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria under a good light source and using a dental mirror and straight explorer.

    3,6 and 12 months

  • Marginal discoloration

    Evaluation for marginal discolouration using the Modified United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria under good light source and using a dental mirror

    3,6 and 12 months

  • Secondary Caries

    Evaluation for new caries using the Modified United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria under a good light source and using a dental mirror and a straight explorer.

    3,6 and 12 months

  • Anatomic form

    Evaluation of anatomic form using the modified United States of Public Health Service Criteria.

    3,6 and 12 months

  • Surface Texture

    Evaluation for surface texture using the modified United States of Public Health Service Criteria

    3,6 and 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Sensitivity

    Pre-operative, 3,6, and 12 months

Eligibility Criteria

Age6 Years - 12 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • year-old patients with at least one fully erupted first permanent molar (FPM) diagnosed with MIH defects (White, creamy, or yellow to brownish opacities greater than one millimetre) without posteruptive enamel breakdown or caries (ICDAS code 0 or 1).
  • Non -contributory medical history
  • Children must exhibit sufficient cooperation for treatment.

You may not qualify if:

  • Medically compromised patient.- Partially erupted MIH first permanent molars that could not be sufficiently isolated.
  • Carious molars.
  • Restored MIH molars.
  • Sealed MIH molars.
  • MIH molars with extensive enamel breakdown that requires restoration.
  • MIH molars planned for extraction (compensatory or balancing extraction) as part of elective extraction plan of MIH molars with poor long-term prognosis.
  • Molars affected with other enamel defects ((e.g., amelogenesis imperfecta or fluorosis)
  • Non-MIH affected molars.
  • Parents did not consent for treatment.
  • Child not sufficiently cooperative for treatment.
