 RECENT CAVITY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEMS
1.     Based on site and size of lesion
a.     Pit and fissure
b.     Contact area
c.      Cervical
2.     Based on radiographic changeslinic
E0 : no carious lesion
E1 : radiolucency in outer half of enamel
E3 : radiolucency in inner half of enamel
D1 : radiolucency in outer third dentin.
D2 : radiolucency in inner third of dentin.

WHO Scoring for shape and depth of carious lesions.

D1 : clinically detectable enamel lesions with intact (non cavitated) surfaces.
D2: clinically detectable cavities limited enamel.
D3: clinically detectable lesions on dentin( with/without cavitation of dentin)
D4: lesions into pulp.

Cavity design modifications
Minimal intervention cavity designs have been disscussed in earlier days Knight and Hunt in 1984 and a new classification has been prepared (Mount and Hume in 1997). The gv black classification does not address this new concept. The proposed classification takes into account the fact that there are only three surfaces of the crown of tooth that can be subject to caries  attacks.
Site 1: pits and fissure on occlusal surface of posterior teeth and  other deflect smooth enamel surface.
Site 2: contact areas between any pair of teeth, anterior or posterior.
Site 3: cervical areas related to gingival tissues, including exposed root surfaces.

A neglected lesion continue to extend ,that will complexities the restoration procedures.
The sites can readily identified.
Size 0: initial lesion at any site can be identified
             No surface cavitation, can possibly be heated.
Size 1:  smallest minimal lesion. Cavity is into dentin just beyond heating through remineralization.
Size 2: moderate size cavity
             Still sufficient sound tooth structure to maintain integrity of remaining crown.
Size 3: cavity needs to modified and enlarged
Provide protection jar remaining crown from occlusal load, avoid split occur at the base of the cusp.
Size 4: cavity I extensive
            Loss of a cusp from posterior teeth/ incisal edge of an anterior.
Site 1 size 0
Ø Concept of fissure seal, simonsen (1989) in newly erupted  tooth, sealing a deep fissure before at occluded at plaque and pellicle , causing demineralizat in dentin.
Ø  Earlier fissure sealents were unfilled/ lightly filled resin
Ø Recently shows, glass ionomer will successfully occlude, if integrity of acid etch union b/w resin and enamel in doubt,(Wilson and Mclean 1988) --- termed in “fissure protection” rather than resin seal.

Site 1 size 1
Ø As fissure walls became demineralized , the  dentin will became involved, which is very difficult to diagnose.
Ø In presence of strong, f enamel , occlusal surface entry to the linear will remain limited , bacteria laden plaque can forced down into a defective fissure, that further complicate dentin involvement before symptoms noticed.
Ø In fissure systems caries defect often be limited to a very restricted area, leaving the remaining system sound and uninvolved , means only the carious defect can be instrumented.
Ø  It is suggested that minor apparent defects should be exposed in a very conservative manner before sealing the fissure system.

Site 1 size 2
Ø  In this lesion will either have progressed or it may represent placement of a failed class1 restoration.
Ø Here also deal with carious lesion only and there is no need to open up the remaining fissures any further. If there is any part of fissure system in doubt , it canexplored very conservatively .
Ø Occlusal lesions are very extensive, if there is any doubt about the ability of GI to withstand the occlusal load it can be cut back conservatively and laminated with resin composite.


Site 1 size 3,4
Ø Replacement of restoration- requires the cavity to enlarge
Ø Cavity design removal of all infected tooth structure and softened affected dentine on the floor of cavity , unscappeled enamel on occlusal surface . consequently the occlusal contact with opposing tooth is lost.  To avoid such procedures a temporary restorations can given, place over lesion and decrease pulpal inflammation.
Ø Glass ionomer can be used, that will band to both enamel and dentine through an ion-exchange mechanism ,  ion remineralization of dentine.



Site 2 size 0
Ø Proximal lesion progress very slowly because the surface is not under masticatory load. In the absence of cavitation, only radiographic evidence of demineralization at contact area, it is often possible to led the lesion.
Ø In contrast to occlusal fissure lesions, it may take up to 4 year to penetrate fill thickness of enamel and additional 4 years to progress through dentin into pulp.

Site 2 size 1,2

Ø  Cavitation on proximal surface – require surgical approach to repair and some alternative methods.
Ø First determine the position of damage in relation to the crest of marginal ridge, if it is more than 2.5 mm below the crest, then it may possible to approach the leniar through occlusal fossa and design a tunnel cavity( hasselrot 1998) (Wilson ,Mclean :1998)
Ø If it is less than 2.5 mm, tunnel will undermine the ridge and weaker it , it is better to design small box or slot cavity begin on outer slope of the ridge , retaining as much as of enamel as possible.

TUNNEL CAVITY PREPARATION
Ø  Early proximal lesion on a posterior tooth, in enamel , below the contact area.
Ø There will be generally be a zone of demineralization enamel surrounding the cavitation, but as long as the surface is smooth, this remain capable of remineralization in presence of f.
Ø  The contact area may remain sound and the marginal ridges may be quite strong, provided the more than is 2.5 mm below the crest of marginal ridge fossa immediately next to medical marginal ridge is the most suitable position for entry.
Ø GI is the best suited , readily flows into small cavities and remineralize the enamel margins.
Procedure
·        Start the cavity preparation in the direction of lesion
·        After lesion is spotted , use a slow speed round bur to remove remaining caries.
·        Do not fracture the proximal wall if it is not involved
·        Remove the remaining caries with span excavator restore using G.I cement.

SLOT CAVITY PREPARATION
·        It could be used when the lesions is less 2.5 mm below the crest of marginal ridge.
·        Basic principles of cavity design remain the same, object of removing only that tooth structure that has broken beyond the possibility of reminerilisation.
·        The outline form will be dictated entirely by the extend of break down of enamel, removal only that which is friable and easily eliminated without applying undue pressure.
·        Here also natural of choice is glass ionomer but lamination technique can also be done.

Proximal approach
This is  a very conservative approach used when proximal surface of a tooth become accessible at the time of cavity preparation in an adjascent tooth. The lesion is revealed through radiograph or noted only during cavity preparation. It is only necessary to remove the enamel , that is broken down beyond remeniralizatio. As the entire restoration will be hidden by adjascent tooth, it is essential to use a radio opaque material. GI is preferred because the limited access will make it difficult to assure full polymerization of the resin through light activation.

ATRAUMATIC RESTORATIVE TREATMENT (ART)
This technique involves the removal of affected tooth tissues with hand instruments , followed by a restoration of cavities with a specially designed glass ionomer restorative material( GC Fuji VIII)

Procedure
·        Undermined enamel are broken off with hand instruments.
·        Soft dentine is excavated.
·        GI material is applied to the cavity and so any confluent pit and fissures.
·        Vaseline coated finger is pressed over the restoration.
·        Hand instrument is used to finish the restoration
Advantages
·         No sophisticated dental equipment is needed
·        Treatment is not depend on electricity
·        Minimal discomfort to patient.
·        Fluoride release from GIC got cariostatic effect
·        Low cost
·        Less chair side procedures ( time consuming is less)

Ozone gas
Ozone is a strong naturally occurring oxidising agent in nature. It is produced by UV rays on lightning in atmosphere.
O2 – 2O
O+ O2 ----- O3 (ozone)
Ozone kills greater than 99% of all bacteria, fungi and viruses as this powerful oxidant readily penetrate through decayed tissues. Such clean and sterile lesion will remineralise easily and eliminate the need for placing restoration. FDA approves this use of ozone in medical field.
Use of ozone maintenance and preventive treatment.
·       Dental cavity disinfection.
·       Root canal disinfection
·       oral candidiasis treatment.
·       Herpetic treatment of apthus ulcer.
·       Stomatitis treatment
·       Cleft lip and palate thereapy
Contraindications
·       Patients using cardiac stimulators ( pace makers)
·       Epileptic patients or suffering from nuerological illness
·       Patients suffering from psychological problems.
·       Mucous  membrane of infants ( under 1 year old)

OZONE VERSUS CHOLORHEXADINE
-                     1.5 times higher oxidizing potential
-                     4-5 times lesser contact time.
-                     No reported delitorious by products.
-                     Efficacy not much affected by change PH

CHEMO MECHANICAL CARIES REMOVAL SYSTEM.
A new promising method for chemo mechanical removal dental caries is based on the principle of MID involves the application – carisolve and caridex has been evaluated and proves to be successful. The principle mode of action is based on the use of sodium hypo chlorate, a non specific proteolytic agent , and the effective interactions of 3 amino acids with caries dentine , remaining organic compartment.

AIR ABRASION
( Microabbrasion and kinetic cavity preparation)
It is a method of tooth structure removal that is considered to be an effective alternate to the standard dental drill. In 1945, Dr: Robert Black of Corpus Christy Texas, published a series of articles on the use of air abrasion technique for cavity preparation and prophylaxis.
                                                                                                            
Air abrasion technology is the use of compressed air to propel aluminium oxide particle with force as to cut tooth structure in simple terms, it is a precision is  blaster. An air abrasive unit is called Airdent.

Advantages.
·       It is painless
·       Local anesthesia is rarely needed.
·       It works quickly and tooth is ready to restore, with small lesion in seconds.
·       There is no vibration/pressure to cause microfracture that weakens tooth.
·       There is no production of heat to damage dental pulp and lesser sound tooth structure is removed.

Principles
·       Accurate diagnosis of unsound tooth structure and decay.
·       Accurate removal of unsound tooth structure with minimal distruction of tooth structure.
·       Restorative treatment planning based on the probability of longevity of the restorative material.
Procedure
Pre operative radiograph taken to determine if the interproximal caries is present.
Isolate preferably with rubber dam

Use caries detecting dye for carious lesion

Using air abrasive unit with high volume evacuation placed in the proximity of tooth prepared cavity.


·       After a few seconds of initial protection, examine the preparation for decaying.
·       Reapply caries detecting dye.
·       Complete preparation using caries detecting dye until all caries is removed.
·       Apply the HN
