Inlays and onlays are custom dental restorations designed to repair teeth that have been damaged by decay, cracks, large fillings or wear. They are a great option for patients who need more support than a traditional filling but may not require a full dental crown.

Unlike regular fillings, inlays and onlays are created specifically for your tooth to provide a precise fit and long lasting protection. They are carefully bonded to the damaged area to restore strength, function and a natural appearance while preserving more of your healthy tooth structure.

An inlay is placed within the inner area of the tooth when the damage is limited to the chewing surface. An onlay provides additional coverage when the damage affects one or more cusps of the tooth. These restorations are often recommended for large fillings, weakened teeth, cracks or damaged tooth areas.
