[2025-10-01T07:26:30.802386] [PI reasoning] **Considering caries removal options**

The evidence shows that incomplete caries removal is aimed at preventing pulp exposure and allowing for dentin remineralization. Option C captures this idea best. I need to remember to cite an article, likely either article 4 or 1. I think I’ll go with Opal et al. (2014), as their review on stepwise excavation emphasizes avoiding pulp exposure. There's also discussion around the risks of leaving affected dentin. Alright, let's finalize the answer!
