Obtain retention form - obtained by shaping the preparation or via bonding procedures that attach the restorative materials to the tooth structure.
Obtain convenience form- allows adequate observation, accessibility and ease of operation during preparation and restoration of the tooth.
Remove remaining carious dentin Finish enamel walls and cavo-surface margins- it involves
making the walls relatively smooth Clean the preparation- it includes washing and scrubbing
