Abstract

The basic aim of therapeutic dentistry is to remove the tissue altered by caries and to preserve the dealthy dental pulp. Taking into account the need for the prevention of disease of the hard dental tissues and of the dental pulp and following the principle of ergonomy in our daily work with out-patients, placing particular emphasis on the time the patient has to spend in the doctor's consultation room, the authors recommend a certain chronological order to be followed in the preparation of cavities. Certainly the right choice of a drill and chisel is of the utmost importance in preparing cavities. The authors consider that the preparation of cavities presents a responsible duty to every dentist and since mistakes frequently occur in shaping the cavity, in preventive extension, in securing retention and resistance of the filling and adding the final touch and polishing of the edges of a cavity, we have tried to draw attention to the chronological order which is necessary to follow in the preparation of cavities and we have emphasized the proper choice of diamond drills.
