My old video on Fundamentals of tooth preparation was without audio. So, I removed the older presentation and added this. Watch and listen...

Need to restore:
1. Prophylactic(sealants)
2. Repair
3. Fracture tooth

6. Part of other treatment(bridge, denture)
7. Fracture restoration
8. defective margins of previous restoration

11. Poor esthetic(including flourosis)

Objectives:
1. Remove all defects(affected dentin can be left only in pulpal floor)
2. Protect pulp(varnish, liner, base..galvanic shock, thermal conductivity, chemicals from restorative materials)
3. Conservative preparation
4. No fracture of tooth.(Cusp capping)
5. No restoration displacement
