Group I; occlusal pit-and-fissure pretreated with acid etch alone (control group), Group II; occlusal pit-and-fissure pretreated with laser alone, Group III: occlusal pit-and-fissure pretreated with acid etch followed by laser; and Group VI: occlusal pit-and-fissure pretreated with laser followed by acid etch. Assessment includes, resin penetration, microleakage, and micro-tensile bond strength of resin-based pit-and-fissure sealant. Results: The results of the present study revealed that the use of acid etching pretreatment alone of the occlusal pit and fissures resulted in significantly better resin penetration, microleakage resistance and better micro-tensile bond strength when compared to laser pretreatment alone. Also, the results of the present study showed that the samples which pretreated with laser in combination with acid etching resulted in insignificant better resin penetration, microleakage resistance and better micro-tensile bond strength when compared to acid etch pretreatment alone.
