title: The conservative restoration of class IV and VI defects.
abstract: Success in conservatively restoring Class IV and VI defects depends upon the method of retention and the restorative material chosen to best fulfill the clinical need. This need is determined by the size of the defect and its location in the arch relative to the functional load, age, vanity, and general dental appreciation of the patient.
