Brief Summary   To evaluate the clinical performance of two different pit and fissure sealants (Clinpro and e-pit and fissure sealant) in terms of retention and caries prevention using Modified Simonsen’s criteria. This study would be single-blinded,split mouth randomized clinical trial with 2 groups reported according to the CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials) statement. Modified Randomization in Split Mouth trial will be performed in terms of the allocation of each quadrant to one of the sealing materials. The study population includes children in the age group of 6-10 years having first permanent molars with deep pits and fissures. The participant will be blinded during the study by masking the name of the sealant (Identified as A or B which the researcher only would be aware of) and the mode of delivery would be similar.
