Comparing two types of tooth sealants for kids with MIH
Part of Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether a new pre-etched bioactive sealant works better than a standard resin-based one to protect permanent molars affected by molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH), a condition that makes teeth softer and more prone to cavities. It aims to find a more effective way to prevent decay in these vulnerable teeth.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 6 and 12 years old.
- They have at least one fully grown first permanent molar with white, creamy, or yellowish-brown spots (MIH) but no cavities or broken enamel.
- Your child has no other medical conditions that affect treatment.
- Your child can sit still and cooperate for a dental procedure.
- The affected molar is fully enough erupted that it can be kept dry during treatment.
- Your child has not had any fillings, sealants, or extractions on that molar.

This study compares two types of tooth-colored coatings (sealants) for protecting permanent molars affected by a condition called molar-incisor hyponineralization. The goal is to see which sealant works better to prevent decay and reduce sensitivity.
This study compares two types of dental sealants applied to the first permanent molars of children aged 6-12 who have a condition called molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH), which means their back teeth have soft or chalky spots. The goal is to see which sealant works better at protecting these teeth from cavities.
This study tests how well two treatments, a special resin and aesthetic masking, hide white or creamy spots on front teeth caused by a condition called molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH). It aims to find the best way to improve the look of affected teeth in children.
This study compares different cleaning agents used before placing tooth-colored sealants on the back teeth of children. The goal is to see which agent helps the sealants last longer and protect teeth better from cavities.
This trial tests a dental treatment called resin infiltration, which is a liquid that is applied to the white or discolored spots on permanent front teeth caused by a condition called molar-incisor hypomineralization. The treatment aims to improve the appearance of these spots and strengthen the enamel without needing drilling or fillings.
This study tests different cleaning agents used before applying tooth sealants on baby molars to see which works best. It may help children without cavities keep their teeth healthy.
