Fluoride-releasing resin-based sealant vs No sealant (control/no treatment)

Development of >=1 new carious lesion (caries incidence) · Children with caries-free or non-cavitated carious lesion primary molars, aged 3-7 years (paediatric department, dental hospital, France)

Glass ionomer-based sealant vs No sealant (control/no treatment)

Development of >=1 new carious lesion (caries incidence) · Children with caries-free primary first molars (with or without caries on other teeth), aged 1-5 years (paediatric clinic/dental school,…

Glass ionomer-based sealant may leads to lower development of >=1 new carious lesion (caries incidence) compared with no sealant (low certainty).

Autopolymerised sealant vs Light polymerised sealant

Development of >=1 new carious lesion (caries incidence) · Children with sound primary molars, aged 2-4 years (municipal dental clinics or hospital paediatric clinics, Denmark)

It is very uncertain whether autopolymerised sealant changes development of >=1 new carious lesion (caries incidence) compared with light polymerised sealant (very low certainty).
