Classification of dental caries
Black
̶I. class – pit and fissure caries
̶II.class – caries on proximal surfaces of premolars and molars
̶III. – caries on proximal surfaces incisors and  canines without lost of incisal edge
̶IV. - – caries on proximal surfaces incisors and  canines with lost of incisal edge
̶V- cervical caries
̶( VI. Caries on incisal edges or cusps)
̶

Classification acc. Mount and Hume
Proximal caries in posterior teeth

̶23 – amalgam, adhesive or metal inlay
[USEMAP]

Adobe Systems
Classification acc. Mount and Hume
Proximal caries in anterior teeth
̶21,22,23 – composit
GIC – patients with worse cooperation (disabled, oral hygiene not optimal)
24 (loss of incisal edge),
 composit, veneer, crown
[USEMAP]

Adobe Systems
Classification acc. Mount and Hume
̶Cervical caries
31 – 33:
Depends on location
Composit
Glassionomer
̶
̶
̶Amalgam –posterior teeth, esp. In patients with worse level of oral hygiene
[USEMAP]
