Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Resin based sealant (Ultraseal XT Hydro)	Sealing deep pits and fissures	-
Glass ionomer based sealant (Fugi Triage)	Sealing deep pits and fissures	-

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Retention rate	Change from baseline at 3, 6, 12 months	* Full retention (FR): The material is fully present on the occlusal surfaces; * Partially lost (PL): The material is present, but as a result of either wear or loss of the material, part of the previously sealed fissure, was exposed.; * Totally lost (TL): No trace of the material to be detected on the surface

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Caries formation	Change from baseline at 3, 6, 12 months	Decayed: If the explorer caught on the tooth after insertion into the fissures
