The purpose was to compare the retention and caries preventive effect of Fuji VII and a resin-based sealant in children at high risk (HR) and low risk (LR) of caries. Fifty-seven schoolchildren (150 teeth) with completely erupted bilateral permanent first molars were included. The study was a split-mouth, randomized trial. Sealant retention and caries were evaluated after 6 months, 1 year and 2 years. After 2 years, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of caries between Fuji VII and Concise in the HR and LR groups. With Concise, LR children were less likely to have dental caries than HR. With Fuji VII, there was no difference in caries incidence between LR and HR. Retention of Concise was superior to that of Fuji VII. Our results suggest that Fuji VII and Concise sealants had similar caries preventive effects in children at high and low risk of caries.

Objective: The study aimed to conduct a comparative analysis of the effects of incorporating hydrazinyl coumarin derivative (HCD) in resin-modified (RMGIC) and conventional glass ionomer cement (cGIC) on their release profiles and antibacterial properties.
Method: Resin-modified GIC, Fuji II LC (F2) and high-fluoride cGIC, Fuji VII (F7) were used as controls. HCD was synthesized in-house, incorporated into both RMGIC and cGICs at 1 % and 2 % weight percentages (w/w), and chemically analyzed using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy.

Aim: The aim of this study was to perform a comparative evaluation of the length of resin tags produced by three different types of pit and fissure sealants (Embrace WetBond, Helioseal Clear, and Fuji VII) using scanning electron microscopy.
Materials And Methods: Thirty extracted mandibular premolars were randomly divided into three groups of ten. Each group was treated with one of the sealants - Embrace WetBond, Helioseal Clear, or Fuji VII.

Introduction: The role of sealants for pits and fissures has been emphasized in caries prevention. Considering the advantages of a surface sealer and the effects of its application over restorative materials; the study is aimed at evaluating two pit and fissure sealants with a nanofilled resin coating.
Materials And Methods: In this double-blinded study, a total of 60 caries-free extracted third molars were collected and divided into two groups of 30 each receiving either a resin-based sealant (Helioseal F) or a glass ionomer-based sealant (GC Fuji VII).

: Caredyne ZIF-C is a novel, capsule-mixed zinc-containing prototype glass ionomer cement (GIC). Zinc ions are reported to inhibit root dentin demineralization, dentin collagen degradation, bacterial growth, acid production, and in vitro bacterial biofilm formation. However, the effectiveness of GICs against initial root caries lesions is unclear.

Background: The sealing ability of different liners under composite restorations in the reduction of microleakage.
Aim: To evaluate the effects of three different liners in sandwich techniques on gingival microleakage of class II composite restorations.
Materials And Methods: Standardized Class II box cavities were prepared on forty premolar teeth and randomly divided into four groups, = 10: Group A, no liner (control); Group B, Polofil NHT Flow; Group C, Ionolux; and Group D, Fuji VII.
