Inlays & Onlays

Inlays and onlays are custom-made restorations used to repair teeth with moderate decay or damage that is too extensive for a filling but not severe enough for a crown. Crafted from durable materials like porcelain, composite resin, or gold, these restorations restore the function and aesthetics of your teeth while preserving as much natural structure as possible.

Inlays & Onlays: What’s the Difference?

  • Inlays: Fit within the grooves of the tooth, covering only the damaged portion.
  • Onlays: Extend over one or more cusps of the tooth, providing additional reinforcement.

Benefits of Inlays & Onlays:

With proper care, inlays and onlays can last for many years. Maintain good oral hygiene, avoid chewing on hard objects, and schedule regular dental check-ups to ensure their longevity.

  • Strengthen and protect damaged teeth
  • Long-Lasting Dental Restoration
  • Preserve more natural tooth structure compared to crowns
  • Blend seamlessly with natural teeth for a natural look
  • Provide long-lasting durability and resistance to wear
  • Prevent further decay or damage

What to Expect During the Inlay & Onlay Procedure:

  • Consultation & Preparation: The affected tooth is examined, and an impression is taken to create a custom-fit restoration.
  • Temporary Protection: A temporary filling may be placed while the permanent inlay or onlay is being fabricated.
  • Final Placement: The custom inlay or onlay is bonded securely to the tooth and polished for a flawless finish.
