This study aims to assess the clinical effectiveness of GC Fuji Triage ® (GC America Inc., Alsip, Illinois) and BeutiSealant (Shofu, Kyoto, Japan) in children aged 8-13 with multiple molars affected by Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH). The comparison focuses on permanent first molars affected by MIH.
The study targets children within the specified age range with MIH-affected molars, comparing the clinical outcomes of GC Fuji Triage and BeutiSealant. The assessment will provide valuable insights into the efficacy of these agents in managing severe hypomineralization, contributing to our understanding of effective treatment modalities for MIH. The evaluation criteria include restoration success, prevention of further decay development, prevention of post-eruption breakdown, alleviation of tooth sensitivity, and measurement of life quality. These criteria will be compared with those of Resin Fissure Sealant.

The Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Score
The Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Score is a test conducted in dental units. Cold air from a spray is applied to the surface of the tooth's dentin, 2-3 mm away, and at a 90-degree angle, with continuous pressure of 45-60 PSI for 2-3 seconds, following the isolation of neighboring teeth. The temperature should be around 20 degrees Celsius. The patient's pain level is then scored by the dentist using a scale. * Score 0: No response to the stimulus. * Score 1: Responds to the stimulus but does not request it to be stopped. * Score 2: Responds to the stimulus, requests it to be stopped, or makes movements to avoid it. * Score 3: Responds to the stimulus, finds it painful, and requests it to be stopped.

Parent Satisfaction

Not satisfied at all 2. Not satisfied 3. Neither satisfied nor dissatisfied (Neutral) 4. Satisfied 5. Very satisfied
