In Vitro Comparison of the Performance of Hydrophilic and Conventional Hydrophobic Resin-Based Fissure Sealants
The hydrophilic UltraSeal XT hydro sealant exhibited superior bond strength compared to the hydrophobic Clinpro sealant across all surface conditions. On slightly moist surfaces, UltraSeal XT hydro showed significantly lower microleakage than Clinpro. Both sealants exhibited superior sealing and retentive ability on dry enamel surfaces compared to the other surfaces.
