Information on

Inlays & Onlays

Dental Inlays and Onlays represent a middle ground between dental fillings and crowns, offering a conservative yet robust solution for repairing moderately damaged or decayed teeth. These restorations are custom-made to fit perfectly into the affected area of the tooth, providing strength, resilience, and a seamless appearance.

Materials and Precision

Crafted from durable materials such as porcelain, composite resin, or gold, Dental Inlays and Onlays are designed to withstand the forces of chewing, ensuring longevity and stability. The procedure involves minimal removal of the tooth structure, preserving the integrity of the natural tooth while providing the necessary restoration.

Enhancing Oral Functionality and Aesthetics

Dental Inlays and Onlays not only restore the functionality of the tooth but also enhance its appearance. They blend seamlessly with the natural tooth, providing a solution that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. This ensures that you can smile, chew, and speak with confidence, knowing that your restoration is virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.

The Evaluation Stage

Experience and Care

Before proceeding with Dental Inlays or Onlays, a thorough evaluation is crucial to determine the most suitable treatment option. Our experienced dental professionals will conduct a comprehensive examination, including X-rays, to assess the extent of the damage or decay.

In-Depth Consultation

During this stage, we engage in an in-depth consultation, discussing your oral health history, any symptoms you may be experiencing, and your expectations for the treatment. This ensures that we have a holistic understanding of your situation, allowing us to tailor the treatment plan to your specific needs.

Expert Guidance and Transparent Communication

We believe in transparent and open communication, ensuring that you are fully informed about every aspect of the procedure, the materials used, the associated costs, and any potential risks or complications. Our goal is to empower you to make an informed decision about your treatment, with our expert guidance every step of the way.

Precision and Expertise

The procedure for Dental Inlays and Onlays is carried out with precision and care, ensuring a seamless and successful outcome. Once the evaluation stage is complete, and a Dental Inlay or Onlay is deemed the most suitable option, we proceed with the preparation of the tooth.

Tooth Preparation and Impressions

The affected area of the tooth is carefully prepared, removing any decay or damaged portions while preserving as much of the natural tooth structure as possible. Impressions of your teeth are then taken, serving as a guide for the creation of your custom-made Inlay or Onlay.

Temporary Restoration and Final Placement

A temporary restoration is provided to protect the prepared tooth while your permanent Inlay or Onlay is being crafted. Once ready, the final restoration is meticulously adjusted and securely placed, ensuring a perfect fit and a seamless integration with your natural tooth.
