Restorative

Inlays & Onlays

Inlays and onlays are custom restorations used when a tooth is too damaged for a simple filling but doesn't yet need a full crown, preserving as much healthy tooth as possible.

An inlay fits within the centre of the tooth. An onlay covers one or more cusps when damage extends further. Both are precisely crafted for a tight, durable fit.

Advantages

  • Conservative, with more natural tooth structure preserved
  • Strong, long-lasting materials
  • Resistant to discolouration over time
  • Custom fit seals the tooth against bacteria
