Arresting occlusal enamel caries lesions with pit and fissure sealants
Arresting occlusal enamel caries lesions with pit and fissure sealants The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of pit and fissure sealants and the effectiveness of the two sealant methods applied in every-day practice in public dental health care in Finland. Two sealant methods were evaluated according to their effectiveness in preventing dentin caries at occlusal surfaces and sea...

متن کاملThe evidence supporting alternative management strategies for early occlusal caries and suspected occlusal dentinal caries.
OBJECTIVE To assess the strength of the evidence describing the effectiveness of alternative strategies to the detection and management of early occlusal caries and suspected occlusal dentinal caries. METHODS Nine detection and intervention decision points were identified as being central to the management of early occlusal caries and suspected occlusal dentinal caries, or suspicious areas. F...
متن کاملPerformance of visual inspection, electrical conductance and laser fluorescence in detecting occlusal caries in vitro.
The aim of this study was to compare visual inspection (VI) and electrical conductance (EC) and laser fluorescence (LF) measurements in detecting occlusal caries. VI was based on fissure discoloration and performed with the naked eye. EC was measured with the ECM device (Lode Diagnostic, Groningen, The Netherlands), and LF was assessed with the DIAGNOdent apparatus (KaVo, Biberach, Germany). In...
