Microleakage, penetration depth, and fluoride release of Embrace Wetbond, Denuseal, and Helioseal F Plus pit and fissure sealants: a comparative in vitro study

Abstract Background The clinical longevity of pit and fissure sealants is closely related to their physical and chemical properties. To address the moisture sensitivity of hydrophobic pit and fissure sealants, hydrophilic types were introduced; however, their performance is not yet fully understood. Objectives The present study was carried out to compare and evaluate microleakage, penetration depth, and fluoride release of three different pit and fissure sealants. Methods Thirty extracted perman
