Study Notes

Class I Restoration

  • Affects pits and fissures on occlusal surfaces of molars and premolars.
  • Involves decay in buccal or lingual pits of molars and lingual pits of maxillary incisors.

Class II Restoration

  • Targets proximal surfaces (mesial and distal) of premolars and molars.
  • Commonly encountered in dental decay affecting multiple surfaces.

Class III Restoration

  • Concerns proximal surfaces (mesial and distal) of incisors and canines.
  • Typically associated with carious lesions in anterior teeth.

Class IV Restoration

  • Involves proximal surfaces (mesial or distal) of incisors and canines.
  • Characterized by decay that affects the incisal edge or angle of the tooth.

Class V Restoration

  • Occurs on the gingival buccal areas of teeth.
  • Generally related to caries near the gum line, often due to plaque accumulation.

Class VI Restoration

  • Impacts incisal edges of anterior teeth and cusp tips of posterior teeth.
  • Caused by abrasion (wear) and defects in enamel or dentin.
