Sažetak
Background: Glass Carbomer represents a new generation of dental glass material developed from glass-ionomer cement material. Advantages of Glass Carbomer are the high wear resistance, the no acid-biocompatibility, the high F release and the incorporation of the fluorapatite particles. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate retention of Glass Carbomer fissure sealant after 12 months of clinical trial. Design: Forty-eight teeth with well-delineated fissure morphology divided in two groups were sealed with glass carbomer (Glass Carbomer Sealant, Glass Carbomer Products, Netherlands) and Helioseal F (Vivadent, Liechtenstein) using split mouth design. Materials were placed and set according manufacturer’s instructions using polymerization unit Bluephase 16i (Vivadent, Liechtenstein). Teeth in group A were sealed with Helioseal F and in group B with Glass Carbomer material. Results: Results showed that complete retention in-group A and B were 75% after 12 months of clinical follow up. There were two new carious lesions in each group. Mann–Whitney U-test didn’t reveal statistical significant differences between groups. Conclusions: Glass Carbomer material showed comparable retention rate and can also be recommended for everyday practice. However, a long-term follow up is required to get reliable results.
