Abstract:
Caries is more likely to occur in fissures and pits on occlusal tooth surface than on its smooth surface. Prevention of dental caries on occlusal surface is possible by applying composites, compomers and glass-ionomer cements, as methods of fissure and pit sealing, immediately after tooth eruption. The development of adhesive dentistry has enabled effective implementation of this method, which has become one of the first minimally invasive procedures. Although it is very simple and economically viable, the method of fissure and pits sealing is still rarely applied in our area. The paper outlines characteristics of materials used in the method of fissure and pits sealing and shows the state of sealing, retention of sealant on the first permanent molars in a three-year period, after the first, second and third year of fissure and pits sealing .
Keywords: caries, composites, compomers, glass-ionomer cements, fissure and pits sealing.
