Evaluation of a novel instrument for placement of dental sealants.
Abstract
<h4>Purpose</h4>To evaluate marginal seal, adaptation, surface texture, and bubble presence of pit and fissure sealants when using a novel instrument (C-Shape It) or the manufacturers' supplied applicators for sealant placement into occlusal fissures.<h4>Methods</h4>Extracted molars with occlusal fissures were cleaned with pumice slurry and divided into six groups (n= 10/gp); three treatment and three control. Sealant materials placed included Ultraseal, Delton, and Helioseal. Excess water was removed per manufacturers' instructions. Sealants were applied with each applicator and with the C-Shape It to each group from cusp to cusp without covering marginal ridges, and the polymerization guidelines for photocuring were followed for all the groups. Samples were thermocycled at 500x between 5° and 55°C. Teeth were sectioned in a buccolingual direction with a minimum of four sections per tooth and examined under a light microscope at 50x and scored.<h4>Results</h4>Marginal seal, adaptation, penetration ability, surface texture, bubble formation and location of the sealants were analyzed using two-way ANOVA on ranks with a 95% confidence interval. The C-Shape It instrument showed consistently smoother surface texture (P< 0.001), which was statistically significant versus all manufacturers' applicators for all materials. Bubble presence was statistically significantly less with the instrument C-Shape It versus the manufacturers' applicators for all materials (P< 0.001). Results also revealed significant differences in marginal sealant adaptation.<h4>Clinical significance</h4>C-Shape It demonstrated consistent ability to reduce bubbles and improve surface texture and adaptation in occlusal fissures for all pit and fissure products tested.
