The scope of this paper is to compare different dental sealants and flow materials indicated for sealing pits and fissures considering their chemical formula. The narrative review aims to address the following questions: What is the essence of different dental sealants' activity, how does their chemical formula affect their mechanisms of caries prevention, and what makes a dental sealant efficient mean of caries prevention? Another vital issue is whether the sealants that contain fluoride, or any other additions, have potentially increased antimicrobial properties. An electronic search of the PubMed, Cochrane, Web of Science, and Scopus databases was performed. The following keywords were used: (dental sealants) AND (chemical composition). Additionally, information about composition and indications for clinical use provided by manufacturers were utilized. All of the considered materials are indicated for use both in permanent and primary dentition for sealing fissures, pits, and . The selection of suitable material should be made individually and adjusted to conditions of the sealing procedure and patient's needs. Cariostatic mechanisms increasing sealants' effectiveness such as fluoride release are desired in modern dentistry appreciating preventive approach. The review aims are to find crucial elements of sealants' composition which affect their cariostatic mechanisms.
本文的范围是比较不同的用于窝沟封闭的牙科密封剂和流体材料，并考虑它们的化学配方。叙述性综述旨在解决以下问题：不同牙科密封剂活性的本质是什么，它们的化学配方如何影响其预防龋齿的机制，以及是什么使牙科密封剂成为有效的龋齿预防手段？另一个重要问题是，含氟或其他添加剂的密封剂是否具有潜在增强的抗菌性能。我们对PubMed、Cochrane、科学网和Scopus数据库进行了电子检索。使用了以下关键词：（牙科密封剂）和（化学成分）。此外，还利用了制造商提供的有关成分和临床使用适应症的信息。所有考虑的材料均适用于恒牙列和乳牙列，用于封闭裂隙、窝沟等。应根据个体情况选择合适的材料，并根据封闭程序的条件和患者的需求进行调整。在重视预防方法的现代牙科中，人们期望有增加密封剂有效性的防龋机制，如氟释放。该综述的目的是找出影响密封剂防龋机制的关键成分。
