Primary Outcome Measures

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