    Study Notes

    Cavity Preparation Classifications

    • Class I: Involves one surface of a tooth; affects occlusal, lingual, or buccal surfaces, particularly the pits and fissures in posterior teeth and the lingual surface of anterior teeth.

    • Class II: Refers to cavities located on the proximal surfaces of posterior teeth, typically the areas between adjacent teeth.

    • Class III: Describes cavities that occur on the proximal surfaces of anterior teeth, specifically between teeth, without involving the incisal edge.

    • Class IV: Concerns cavities in the proximal surfaces of incisors or canines that do extend to include the incisal edge.

    • Class V: Identifies cavities found in the cervical one-third of the facial or lingual surfaces of all teeth, specifically excluding pits or fissures.

    • Class VI: Pertains to decay affecting the incisal edges of anterior teeth or the cusp tips of posterior teeth, highlighting the uppermost portions of these teeth.
