Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The indications for sealants include recently erupted teeth and occlusal pits and fissures of non-carious primary teeth. Teeth with well-coalesced pits and fissures are also indicated for sealants. However, teeth that have been caries-free for 4 or more years may not necessarily require sealants unless there are specific high-risk factors present. Therefore, options 1, 2, and 3 are correct, while option 4 is not a definitive indication for sealants.
