Inlays and Onlays

 

These are strong, reliable and long lasting restorations that are used to repair a cavity or fractured tooth surface. They are more conservative of your natural tooth structure compared to crowns and can be used to restore the function, appearance and strength of your damaged tooth.

 

Inlays and onlays can be made from porcelain, gold, or composite or ceramic resin. The procedure involves two visits – at the first one, the old filling or decay is removed and the tooth is prepared for the inlay or onlay. An impression is taken and the inlay/onlay is custom made in a laboratory to fit your prepared cavity.
