Dental Inlays & Onlays

Inlays and onlays are durable restorations used to repair decayed or broken teeth. They are smaller than dental crowns but offer more stability than fillings. These restorations are ideal for deep cavities, broken teeth, or large fillings. The procedure involves two appointments: the first for preparing the tooth and taking impressions, and the second for placing and adjusting the restoration. Inlays and onlays are a long-lasting alternative to crowns and fillings, perfectly blending with your natural smile.

Inlays and onlays are custom-made restorations used to repair damaged or decayed teeth. They are more durable than traditional fillings and can be made from porcelain, composite resin, or gold.

Inlays and onlays cover a larger area of the tooth than traditional fillings. Inlays fit within the grooves of the tooth, while onlays extend over one or more cusps. They provide a stronger and longer-lasting solution.

With proper care, inlays and onlays can last 10 to 30 years. Their durability depends on the material used and how well you maintain your oral hygiene.
