The tooth to be treated must be in occlusion and have at least one proximal contact. 2. Amalgam extensive restoration involving cusp replacement and utilizing auxiliary retention techniques.

The tooth to be treated must be in occlusion and have at least one proximal contact. 4. Class IV resin restoration.
