Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of the present study is determine the cost-effectiveness, clinical- effectiveness, acceptability and adverse effect of resin sealants versus the fluoride varnish for the prevention of dental caries on newly erupted permanent molars.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Fluoride varnish (3M Clinpro White Varnish 5% sodium fluoride).
  • Device: Resin based fissure sealant (3M Clinpro Sealant)
N/A

Detailed Description

A Cochrane systematic reviews found low quality evidence supporting Current practice guidelines that recommend the use of Resin based fissure sealant over Fluoride varnish in prevent dental caries. However, they did not address the cost-effectiveness, A more recent systematic review and meta-analysis concluded that no statistical significance difference between Resin based fissure sealant and Fluoride varnish with a high-quality evidence in prevent dental caries.

This trial will measure cost effectiveness and clinical effectiveness for resin fissure sealant and fluoride varnish.

Study Design

Study Type:
Interventional
Anticipated Enrollment :
91 participants
Allocation:
Randomized
Intervention Model:
Parallel Assignment
Intervention Model Description:
The study will be randomized, allocation-blinded, two-arm, parallel-group trial. The participants will be randomized on a 1: 1 allocation ratio to receive one of the following interventions: Resin-based fissure sealant FS. Fluoride varnish FVThe study will be randomized, allocation-blinded, two-arm, parallel-group trial.The participants will be randomized on a 1: 1 allocation ratio to receive one of the following interventions:Resin-based fissure sealant FS. Fluoride varnish FV
Masking:
None (Open Label)
Masking Description:
No one is blinded ( unfortunately) as fissure sealant will be obvious

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: intervention

Fluoride varnish (3M Clinpro White Varnish 5% sodium fluoride). Group (1)

Device: Fluoride varnish (3M Clinpro White Varnish 5% sodium fluoride).
5% sodium fluoride Varnish is a fluoride varnish which is applied to tooth surfaces
Other Names:
  • 5% sodium fluoride varnish 3M
  • Active Comparator: comparator

    Resin based fissure sealant (3M Clinpro Sealant, light cure, low viscosity, fluoride release).group (2)

    Device: Resin based fissure sealant (3M Clinpro Sealant)
    teeth will be isolated with cotton rolls and saliva ejector than etching for pits and fissure sealant
    Other Names:
  • Resin based fissure sealant 3M
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Clinical-effectiveness (will be measured with DFS [Through study completion, an average of one year]

      Clinical-effectiveness (will be measured by DFS) Clinical effectiveness (continuous outcome will be measured with DFS D Decayed in permanent molar Filling in permanent molar S Surface

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Cost-effectiveness (will be measured with Incremental cost effective ratio ICER [through study completion, an average of one year]

      Cost-effectiveness (will be measured with Cost-effectiveness will be calculated based on the following measures:- Economic measures (continuous outcome, (money) will be measured with Calculate The total cost of each of FV and FS in every visit) . Clinical effectiveness (continuous outcome will be measured with DFS.

    Other Outcome Measures

    1. Time of application (continuous outcome, (minutes) will be measured with stopwatch. [Through application of interventions in treatment visit( baseline)]

      Time of application (continuous outcome, (minutes) will be measured with stopwatch.

    2. acceptability will be measured by questionnaire [through study completion, an average of one year]

      I will ask the parent and child if this trial is acceptable or not

    3. adverse effect will be measured by questionnaire [through study completion, an average of one year]

      Questionnaire for the parent (allergy, diarrhea or vomiting )
