Definition:
What is a cavity?
It is a defect in the hard tooth structure resulting from
an insult as caries and trauma.
What is tooth preparation?
It is mechanical alteration of a defective, injured or
diseased tooth to receive a restorative material that re-
establish the health state for the tooth including its
aesthetics, normal form and function.
Conventional preparation:`
Tooth preparation that relates to amalgam, gold or
ceramic restoration might be considered conventional
preparation that require specific form, depth and
marginal form.
Modified preparation:
Tooth preparation for bonded direct restorations as
composite or glass ionomer has less need for specific
depth, wall and marginal form and is considered to be
modified preparations.
Indications for restorative
intervention:
Repair destroyed tooth
Repair fractured tooth either complete or incomplete
[green stick fracture].
Restore teeth with congenital malformations.
Replace defective restoration.
Replacement of missing teeth.
Need for improved form or aesthetic.

Why do we prepare cavities?
Objectives of tooth preparation:
Remove all defects and provide necessary protection to
the pulp.
Extend the restoration as conservatively as possible.
Tooth prep such that under mastication both the
tooth and restoration will not fracture or displace.
Allow the functional and aesthetic placement of a
restorative material.
