Smooth surface caries affect which surfaces?

Buccal, Lingual, Mesial, Distal
Occlusal, Buccal, Lingual
Mesial, Distal, Occlusal
Proximal, Buccal, Lingual

The correct answer is: Buccal, Lingual, Mesial, Distal

Smooth surface caries affect the buccal, lingual, mesial, and distal surfaces of teeth. This means that all surfaces of the tooth, except for the occlusal surface, can be affected by smooth surface caries. Option B is incorrect because it does not include the mesial and distal surfaces. Option C is incorrect because it does not include the buccal and lingual surfaces. Option D is incorrect because it does not include the occlusal surface. So, the correct answer is A because it includes all the necessary surfaces that can be affected by smooth surface caries.
