Micro-tensile bond strength of two pit and fissure sealants to intact enamel

Background: Sealing dental pits and fissures with resin-based sealants effectively prevents occlusal dental caries. The effectiveness of resin-based pit and fissure sealants relies on maintaining a strong bond between the sealant and the enamel. Objective: This in-vitro study compared the micro-tens...
