✓. Patients who have existing pits and fissures that are anatomically deep and caries susceptible.
✓. Permanent molars teeth without any caries and cavitation. (Azarpazhooh \& Main 2008)
✓. Permanent molar teeth that have deep pit and fissure morphology, with "sticky" fissures.
✓. Permanent molar teeth with stained grooves.
✓. Stained pits and fissures with minimum decalcification of opacification and no softness at the base of the fissure (ICDAS 1 and 2).
