Abstract

Evaluation Of Commonly Treated Maxillary Teeth With Preventive Resin Sealant Among Children With Mixed Dentition

Highlights

  • Dental caries is a multifactorial disease which depends on various factors such as fermentable sugar, host factors, presence of cariogenic bacteria and other associated environmental factors

  • Within the limits of the study, it can be concluded that pits and fissures sealant can be mostly used for mixed dentition which is 6-12 years of age especially both males and females

Summary

Introduction

Dental caries is a multifactorial disease which depends on various factors such as fermentable sugar, host factors, presence of cariogenic bacteria and other associated environmental factors. Application of Pit and fissure sealants is an integral part of comprehensive caries management approach. Conclusion: Within the limits of the study, it can be concluded that pits and fissures sealant can be mostly used for mixed dentition which is 6-12 years of age especially both males and females. This aggregate of cells is encapsulated in a self-producing organic matrix of polysaccharides, proteins and DNA This biofilm enhances the cariogenicity of acid producing bacteria by protecting these bacteria from host defense [4]. These bacteria which colonize start to initiate caries thereby leading to the poor oral hygiene. Management for such conditions mainly depends on the extent, severity and stage of dental caries. In the condition where the caries involve the hard tissues but is asymptomatic with no pulpal involvement, caries would be managed through restoration
