Montefiore Medical Center·interventional·Posted Dec 16, 2016·Updated Jan 20, 2023

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating DryShield and Cotton rolls for Time and Patient Preference. Completed, enrolled 32 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The goals of this study are to determine if 1) placement times of pit and fissure sealants using the DryShield system differ from those when using the cotton roll isolation technique; and 2) there is a significant difference in patient preference between Dryshield and the cotton roll technique.

Interventions

DryShielddevice

DryShield (DS) is an all-in-one isolation system. It combines the tasks of fluid evacuation, tongue and cheek retraction, and serves as a bite block. Its design allows it to suction and isolate half the oral cavity at a time.

Cotton rollsother

Cotton Roll Isolation requires placing cotton rolls along the buccal mucosa, especially over the parotid glands ducts for maxillary teeth. For the mandibular teeth, the cotton rolls are placed in the buccal vestibule and the floor of the mouth (between the lower buccal mucosa and underneath and/or between the tongue). With this technique, a high-speed evacuation of saliva and water is used.
