Resin-based sealants were developed to be applied on the occlusal surfaces susceptible to the development of caries lesions, covering the pits and fissures, creating a layer that avoids the retention of food debris and biofilm in these areas, thus preventing the development of caries lesions [ 4].
Thus, the bacterial composition of the oral cavity is suspected to play an important role in the development of caries and gum disease.
Microleakage in these teeth may result in more destructive outcomes because hypomineralised enamel is more susceptible to development of caries than sound enamel [7, 26, 28].
Specifically, neutral lipids, free fatty acids and triglycerides were observed at higher concentrations caries susceptible group and are probably associated with the development of caries [76].
According to some authors [3, 8, 21 23], the increase in flow rate, pH and buffer capacity can have a sort of protective effect against the development of caries.
Adequate level of salivary calcium, phosphate, and fluoride is also involved in significant deposition of these minerals in plaque, which greatly reduces the development of caries in the adjacent enamel of teeth.

Its application to newly-erupted posterior teeth is the best method to prevent pit and fissure caries, and/or to prevent the continued development of incipient caries into frank caries when the incipient lesion is sealed over.
The bacteria present in the dental plaque that are involved in the etiology of primary caries most likely also play a major role in the development of secondary caries [ 5].
The development of dental caries within the mouth followed a fixed hierarchy indicating that tooth surfaces show variation in caries susceptibility.
Dental caries or its treatment in the primary dentition is a strong predictor for future development of dental caries in the primary, mixed and permanent dentitions.
The presences of overhangs, even the clinically hard-to-detect minor overhangs, predispose a patient to the development of recurrent caries, which indicated that plaque accumulation is an important predisposing factor in the development of recurrent caries [ 24].
