What are Inlays & Onlays

Inlays and Onlays are dental solutions to decayed, cracked or fractured teeth. They are used if the damage is too much to be treated by a filling and if there is sufficient healthy tooth remaining to be replaced by a crown. Dental inlays and onlays are great replacements for old fillings. A Dental Inlay is similar to a filling and is used if the damaged area is inside the cusp tips of the tooth. A Dental Onlay is a more substantial reconstruction and extends over the cusps of the treated tooth. Inlays and Onlays are extremely durable restorative solutions that prolong the life span of your natural tooth. They are made to match the color and the shape of your original tooth.
