Pits and fissures on occlusal surfaces, or in buccal or lingual pits.
Location in a pit or fissure is the deciding feature.Proximal surfaces of premolars and molars.
The posterior proximal location defines the class; a generic smooth-surface label does not.Proximal surfaces of anterior teeth without incisal-edge involvement.
If the incisal edge is involved, sort the lesion as Class IV instead.A proximal surface of an anterior tooth with incisal-edge involvement.
Both the anterior proximal surface and the incisal edge are involved.The gingival or cervical third of a facial or lingual surface.
The cervical-third surface location is the deciding feature.A posterior cusp-tip lesion, or a lesion confined to the incisal edge of an anterior tooth.
An anterior example stays on the incisal edge and does not extend onto a proximal surface.
