Abstract

The prevention of caries is the important in the dental profession. Among the prevention treatments are the sealants of pit and fissure, whose efficiency has been proven over time, however, if a correct diagnosis is not performed, this rather than being an ally can be counterproductive. In this study an analysis was made of, the personal factors and dental characteristics of the child that are taken into account by the students, for the placement of sealants for pit and fissure in children. It was done through a questionnaire where each of the questions represented a factor and a characteristic. In conclusion, it was obtained that the decision criteria used by the students of both clinics II and clinics III were right.If we take the number of criteria applied,12 in total, all of them reported in the scientific literature, the students of clinics II use 10 of them and those of clinics III 8 of them, so it can be said that the criterion of the first is more accurate than that of the seconds.
