The basic aim of cavity preparation design should be to establish the best possible shape that can cope with the distribution of stresses in tooth structure and restoration without failure. By restoring the tooth form, we aim at maintaining the stomatognathic system. Large amalgam restorations caused a static load on the cusps of the teeth to predispose a tooth to fracture, and adequate preparation guidelines are important affecting the prognosis of restoration. For inlay restoration requires a careful balance between the requirements of retention and the stresses generated.
