Inlays and Onlays

Custom inlays and onlays crafted from durable materials to restore damaged teeth while preserving natural structure and ensuring a precise, long-lasting fit.

Inlays and onlays offer a middle ground between traditional fillings and full crowns. These custom-made restorations are crafted from durable materials like porcelain or composite resin, then bonded to your tooth to repair damage that's too extensive for a regular filling but doesn't require a full crown. The result is a strong, natural-looking restoration that preserves your healthy tooth structure.

The difference between an inlay and an onlay comes down to coverage. An inlay fits within the cusps (the raised points) of your tooth, while an onlay extends over one or more cusps, providing broader coverage for more significant damage. Both options are remarkably durable and blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, making them an excellent choice for restoring molars and premolars. Our dentists will evaluate your tooth and recommend whether an inlay, onlay, or another restoration is the best fit for your situation.
