The immediate and long-term effects of invasive and noninvasive pit and fissure sealing techniques on the microflora in occlusal fissures of human teeth.

Abstract:

:The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of acid conditioning and occlusal sealant on microbial colonization of pit and fissures submitted to ameloplasty or left intact. Human enamel blocks containing fissures prepared from the occlusal surfaces of unerupted third molars were implanted in occlusal fillings in molars of 12 patients for seven, 30, 60, and 120 days. After seven days of exposure to the oral environment, the pit and fissure blocks were removed and found to be colonized, mainly with gram-positive coccal flora. The acid-etching procedure itself reduced the number of cultivable microorganisms by about 95%. Subsequent application of occlusal sealant caused a gradual decrease of the remaining viable microorganism throughout the experiment. Despite the decrease of 100% after acid etching in most of the fissures submitted to ameloplasty, the occlusal sealant did not lead to a subsequent significant reduction.
