Assess Individual Caries Risk (ICR) 2. Seal the 1st and 2nd permanent molarsin patients aged under 20 years who have a high ICR; if possible, use a resin-based sealant if tooth isolation is unsatisfactory 3. Monitor patients -a year if ICR is high2-4 times  - at least once a year if ICR is low 4.Maintain other caries prevention measures  
1. Assessing Individual Caries Risk (ICR)  one or more of the following risk factors have a high ICRPatients with ·No daily tooth brushing with fluoride toothpaste ·Regularly eating sugary snacks between mealtimes (sugar-containing foods, sugar-containing drinks, sweets) ·Long-term use of sugar-containing medicines or medicines causing hyposalivation ·Deep fissures2in the molars ·Plaque visible without applying a disclosing agent ·Presence of caries (dentine affected) and/or early reversible lesions (enamel affected).  of these risk factors have a low ICRPatients with none

2. Sealing  
 
 Caries-free surfaces and enamel caries 
Isolation satisfactor
Apply a resin-based sealant 
1.
2.
3.
4.
Clean (dry brush or air polishing)
Etch with 35-37% orthophosphoric acid for at least 15 sec, then wash for 15 sec and dry
Apply resin-based sealant
Check sealant retention using a probe
Isolate the toothwith a dental dam (or cotton wool rolls and suitable aspiration)
Isolation unsatisfactory  
Apply glass ionomer sealant  
Apply fluoride varnish
Isolation not possible  
Postpone sealing and insist on other preventive measures 
Reassess ICR after 3 months
ICR still high
Apply a resin-based sealant (unless previously-appliedglassionomer sealant is still intact)  (isolation now satisfactory)
Questionable carious lesions Open fissures and use an aedhesive system and restoration material. Fissure sealing is no longer an option.  
3. Monitoring       
Check integrity of sealantand repair if necessary Reassess ICR
