Inlays and Onlays

INLAYS & ONLAYS

Dental inlays and onlays are restorations used to repair rear teeth with mild to moderate decay or cracked and fractured teeth that are not sufficiently damaged to need a crown.

Dental inlays and onlays are used when old fillings need to be removed or replaced. A dental inlay is similar to a filling and fits inside the cusp tips (top edges) of the tooth. A dental onlay is more extensive and extends over the cusps of the treated tooth.

There are various benefits to this form of restorative treatment, including protecting a damaged tooth, helping to reduce sensitivity, replacing old silver fillings for a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
