The 2016 guideline panel convened by the American Dental Association (ADA), CSA, and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) developed a clinical practice guideline based on a systematic literature review. It recommended the use of pit-and-fissure sealants on the occlusal surfaces of primary and permanent molars in children and adolescents:

  • Sealants effectively prevent and arrest pit-and-fissure occlusal caries (tooth decay) lesions of primary and permanent molars in children and adolescents compared to the non-use of sealants or use of fluoride varnishes.
  • Sealants can minimize non-cavitated occlusal caries lesions (initial lesions) of the tooth that received the sealant.
  • The caries process is multifactorial and can culminate in localized destruction of hard dental tissues by weak acids.
  • Effectively penetrating and sealing pits and fissures in the surfaces of teeth can prevent caries lesions and is part of a comprehensive caries management approach.
  • Sealants can be applied to the occlusal surfaces of teeth to penetrate anatomic surface pits and fissures and form a physical barrier on the tooth surface.
