Draw symbols that represent… Existing
Restorations Conditions
Blue
Treatment Needs to be completed
Red
Read and understand the symbols… Like English
Extremely accurate Charts are legal
documents. Used in court ID victims
Types of tooth charts.
Anatomic Looks like teeth May show roots
Geometric Small circles divided
into 5 sections Combination
See examples pg. 74 lab book.
Anatomical chart
Charting systems.
Two color charting Different colors
indicate…. Existing
Restorations Conditions

Red and Blue Commonly used!
Computer Different software
programs Many colors Default symbols
Can be customized Red / Blue Any color choices.

Tooth surfaces.
Anterior Mesial Distal Facial / labial Incisal edge Lingual
Posterior Mesial Distal Facial / buccal Occlusal Lingual
Combining tooth surfaces.
Single surface B, O, L
2 or more posterior
MO, DO, MODBL
Anterior MI, DF, MIDFL
Rules for order1. Proximal surface 1st.
1. Mesial before Distal
2. Distal 1st if no Mesial
2. Occlusal / Incisal 2nd.1. 1st if No M or D
3. Side surfaces 3rd.1. Facial / buccal
2. Lingual is always Last
Cavity Classifications
Class I Anterior or Posterior Single surface
O, B, L
Can be 2 surfaces OL, OB
Will never involve.. M or D
Cavity Classifications
Class II Posterior teeth only Involves at least one
proximal surface. Examples…
MO, DO, MOD, MODBL
Cavity Classifications
Class III Anterior teeth only! Involves 1 proximal
surface. NO Incisal edge
Examples MF DL
Cavity Classifications
Class IV Anterior teeth only At least1 proximal
surface AND includes the
incisal edge Examples
MI DIF MIDFL
Cavity Classifications
Class V Anterior / Posterior
teeth Facial or Lingual
surface At the gumline
Gingival/cervical 1/3 of the crown.
Does not touch M or D
Cavity Classifications
Class VI Not one of the original
5 developed by GV Black
ADA added later Anterior / posterior
Occlusal surface Incisal edge Due to attrition /
abrasion
Rules of thumb!
Chart less not more…. If unsure, don’t chart it. We can add it later
Chart smaller not bigger We can make the
symbol larger later.
Ask questions if you are unsure.
Admit mistakes. Never diagnose. Be flexible to adjust to
new or different symbols you may learn.
