Brief Summary   Children who fulfill the inclusion criteria will be made to snit comfortably on the dental chair and the procedure to be done will be explained to the patient as well as the parent. Detailed case history will be recorded and written consent will be taken from the parents. The tooth undergoing pit and fissure placement will be cleaned, dried, etched and filled with the pit and fissure sealant. The sealant will be immediately light cured after its placement by 20 second exposure. Patient will be informed not to eat or consume any fluids for 30 minutes after sealant placement. Clinical evaluation of the sealed teeth will be done at 3- and 6- month interval using the modified USPHS rating criteria.
