Cavity design is a fundamental principle in Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, aimed at preserving healthy tooth structure while ensuring effective removal of diseased tissue and long-term restoration of function and aesthetics. Traditional concepts proposed by G.V. Black emphasized mechanical retention and extension for prevention, whereas contemporary cavity design follows the philosophy of minimally invasive dentistry, focusing on maximum conservation of sound enamel and dentin. Advances in adhesive dentistry, restorative materials, have significantly influenced cavity preparation techniques, allowing more conservative approaches without compromising clinical success. marginal adaptation. In endodontics, access cavity design plays a critical role in locating canal orifices, achieving straight-line access, minimizing procedural errors, and preserving pericervical dentin to improve fracture resistance.
