Tooth-Like Fillings for a Completely Natural Look
A popular treatment choice for many patients, Ceramic In-lays and On-lays are an excellent form of tooth restoration. A custom-fit tooth-color ceramic filling blends in with original tooth for complete naturalness. The filling is visually unnoticed and more durable, lasting 3-4 times longer than a normal filling. Furthermore, it protects and adds strength to the tooth.

Inlays and onlays are similar to crowns, but conserve more natural tooth structure. They are created in a dental lab and are bonded into place.
Large fillings on back teeth often require a stronger contoured restoration, such as porcelain inlays or onlays.They are created in a dental lab and are bonded into place using a strong resin. Inlays and onlays are similar to crowns, but conserve more natural tooth structure. |
Types of Inlays and Onlays
Inlays and onlays can be made of porcelain, gold, or composite resin. Porcelain inlays mimic enamel's translucency and color, making them attractive choices for patients. Gold alloy inlays and onlays possess greater durability.
How it works
An “Onlay” covers one or more cusps and corners of the tooth, whereas an “Inlay” is smaller and does not cover the edges. Instead of simply filling the prepared hollow space (cavity), a mould is made of your tooth and the Inlay-Onlay is custom made by lab technicians according to our dentist’s instructions. A very precise, custom-fitted ceramic tooth-colour filling is permanently bonded to the tooth.
Benefits of Dental Inlays and Onlays:
Inlays and onlays are incredibly strong due to the fact that they are created in a laboratory. This protects the tooth from fracturing and actually strengthens the tooth. In addition, inlays and onlays fit almost perfectly into the prepared surface of the tooth, reducing the size of the seam between the restoration and the tooth. This helps keep decay from eventually occurring under the restoration.
Inlays and onlays require the removal of only decayed areas of the tooth, leaving more healthy tooth structure intact. This can help prevent the expense of root canal therapy in the future.
- Increase the strength of a tooth with respect to fillings
- Alternative to an crown when teeth damage is not extensive
