7. Non-Self Cleansing
Areas
• Pits and Fissures
• Contact Areas

• Gingival Embrasures
• Facial or Lingual Surfaces
Apical to Cervical Ridge

8. Self Cleansing Areas
• Tips of Cusps
• Crests of marginal and crosing ridges
• All inclined planes of cusps and ridges
• Occlusal, incisal, facial and lingual
embrasures
• Facial or lingual surfaces incisal or
occlusal to the height of contour with the
exception of pits, if present
• Axial angles of teeth
