Using deproteinizing agents before fissure sealants on lower primary molars

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This interventional trial applies deproteinization agents (sodium hypochlorite or hypochlorous acid) to the fissures of lower second primary molars prior to fissure sealant placement and monitors clinical outcomes. Eligible participants are healthy children aged 4–6 with cooperative behavior (Frankl 3–4) and caries-free mandibular second primary molars. Teeth with existing sealants, developmental defects, or approximal/incipient caries are excluded. Clinical sealant retention and caries-related outcomes will be recorded at scheduled follow-up visits after application.
