Micro-CT assessment of sealant penetration in different types of fissures in primary molars
Sealants prevent the development of dental caries by forming a protective barrier that reduces bacterial growth and food retention. The morphology of the pits and fissures and the material of the sealant can affect the depth to which it penetrates into the fissures and the longevity and durability of the sealant.
