Question 84 (part 2) · LDEK · Fissure sealing

During a control examination in a 6-year-old girl with high caries risk, partially erupted first molars have been observed. Choose correct treatment method:

  1. A. sealing the fissures with sealant based on bis-GMA resin.
  2. B. sealing the fissures with sealant based on glass-ionomer cement modified with resin.
  3. C. sealing the fissures with sealant based on conventional glass-ionomer cement.
  4. D. sealing the fissures with sealant based on compomer.
  5. E. surgical exposure of tooth’s crown, allowing for sealing procedure.
Hint

Consider which sealing material tolerates moisture, since a dry field cannot be achieved on a molar still partly covered by gingiva.
