In the same-visit protocols, sealants were applied immediately after silver fluoride treatment, either following gentle blot drying with cotton or after immediate rinsing. Hypersensitivity, caries progression, and sealant retention were assessed at 1, 6, and 12 months. Hypersensitivity was evaluated using the Schiff Cold Sensitivity Scale (SCASS). Sealant performance was analyzed using modified USPHS criteria. Statistical analyses included Fisher\u2019s Exact Test and the Friedman test.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Full retention was achieved in all resin-based sealant groups, while the lowest retention rate (88.9%) was recorded in the glass ionomer sealant group applied one week after silver fluoride. Caries occurred in 2.8% of teeth and was confined to three groups: glass ionomer sealants placed one week after silver fluoride, resin-based sealants applied immediately following blot drying, and glass ionomer sealants applied immediately after rinsing. All other groups showed complete clinical success.
