A definitive cavity design, without pins, that enhances retention and resistance form for simple and complex Class IV composite restorations is proposed. An extracted tooth model and diagrams illustrate the incisal step 45° bevel design for simple cavities and the incisal step veneer bevel design for complex cavities. A case report of a complex Class IV composite restoration is presented.
