smaller seal, making the denture more likely to dislodge during function.

Conservative DentistryExplanation: In a Class V amalgam restoration, the occlusal
wall (or the wall facing the occlusal surface) is typically wider than the
gingival wall (the wall facing the gingiva). This design feature helps to
provide adequate bulk for the restoration, ensuring strength and resistance to
fracture. The other options, such as retention undercuts and wall convergence,
are not characteristic features of Class V restorations, which are primarily
concerned with the gingival and occlusal relationships.
