A front tooth, typically referring to an incisor, has four surfaces: the facial (front) surface, the lingual (back) surface, the mesial (toward the center of the mouth) surface, and the distal (away from the center of the mouth) surface. Additionally, the incisal edge is considered a fifth surface where the tooth bites or cuts food. Thus, while the main surfaces are four, including the incisal edge gives a more comprehensive view of its structure.

Its basically a large filling. A three surface filling can be described in example as "MOD Filling" which would the the mesial, occlusal, facial surfaces, if indeeed, that is the 3 surfaces the filling is going. Mesial and distal represent the different sides of the tooth, and occlusal is the top - center surface of the tooth. So MOD would be a filling ranging across the top of the tooth. The entire top wont be gone, but there will be a noticable filling.
