Methods for preserving dental tissue are presented and ample evidence highlights the need to seal with a quality restorative material.

Download or read book Pit and Fissure sealants written by Sharon Priscilla and published by Clever Fox Publishing. This book was released on with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dental caries is an imbalance between the gain and loss of minerals. The minerals are lost from teeth by acids produced by bacteria within the mouth whereas minerals are gained from saliva and fluorides present in the oral cavity. Posterior teeth have fissures while anterior teeth have cingulum or pits. These pits and fissure are most prone to dental decay as food gets trapped in them and are difficult to clean. Pit and fissure sealants are material used to fill these pits and fissures to create a smooth surface making it easy to clean. Pit and fissure sealants are commonly used in pediatric patients and erupting permanent molars as they are at high risk. Pit and fissure sealants are a preventive treatment method where a barrier is created and removes biofilm from the occlusal surface. This library dissertation highlights various pit and fissure sealants, their indication, contraindication, technique of application.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dental caries is the most common chronic human disease. Globally, WHO reports caries prevalence in school-age children at 60-90%. 2/3rd of the total caries experienced in children are on the occlusal surface in pit fissures; inspite of the fact that only 12.5% of the surfaces are occlusal. The best positive way to treat ailment is the - Prevention of diseases. The systemic and topical fluoride protects the teeth from decay, but relative effect of fluoride is least for pit and fissure. The preventive function of a pit and fissure sealant is achieved by the adherence of the material to the acid etched enamel surface thus physically occluding the pit and fissure, which prevents lodging of fermentable carbohydrates and colonization of bacteria. As long as the sealant remains intact, there will be very less chances of development of caries beneath it. Pit and fissure sealants are economical and adequate means for prevention of dental caries on occlusal surface of molars and premolars and to maintain dental health. Usage of sealants are advocated in various public health prevention measures and had been proved success.
