Abstract : Pits and fissures sealants have been effective in preventing occlusal caries in molars provided their proper retention. The placement of a bonding agent beneath sealants has been effective in improving sealant retention. However, the procedure can be time consuming requiring more steps. The introduction of new self etching adhesives will allow the simple placement of sealants with less time involved and good clinical results, which makes it a valuable option in areas that are difficult to isolate and in patients with behavior problems, and the special child patient. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to measure and compare the bond strength of a pit and fissure sealant to tooth enamel using two new self etching adhesives both in vivo and in vitro. The 1st part of the study was clinical where 75 1st permanent molars were randomly sealed in children using different techniques. Twenty five molars were controls where the sealant was applied conventionally using phosphoric acid etching. In the other 50 molars (tests groups) self etching adhesives (Prompt LP and AdheSE) were used as the sole etching and bonding agents (25 molars each). Patients were followed up for 6 months to examine sealant retention. The 2nd part of the study was laboratory, where 30 freshly extracted human molars received sealant as in the three mentioned approaches. Ten molars received sealant Conventionally (control) and the other 20 molars received sealant using the self etching adhesives (10 molars each).
