Q

“Class V” Preparation: Convenience Form
! You need to see and access the carious lesion for removal and restoration
! Many times gingival tissue displacement with a ____ clamp is necessary

“Class V” Preparation: Depth
! Ideal depth is just into ____
! The occlusal wall needs to penetrate more enamel so it will be slightly deeper, ____ mm
! The gingival wall will be less deep due to thinning enamel near the CEJ, ____ mm

  • convenience form: might need to wrap around transitional line, may need to use clamp to push skin away, or surgically remove tissue
  • stop 0.5 mm into dentin b.c this is only class ____ lesion
  • enamel gets thinner towards CEJ-don’t ____ axial wall cuz tooth naturally tapers itself
