Inlays & Onlays
What are Inlays & Onlays?
- Strength and Durability: Inlays and onlays are significantly more durable than traditional fillings, lasting for many years with proper care. This is especially important for teeth subjected to significant chewing forces.
- Preserved Tooth Structure: Unlike fillings, which often require removing a significant amount of healthy tooth structure, inlays and onlays require minimal removal. This helps preserve the natural strength and longevity of your teeth.
- Natural Appearance: These restorations are custom-designed to match the color and translucency of your surrounding teeth, creating a seamless and natural look that blends beautifully with your smile.
- Improved Chewing Function: The strong materials used in inlays and onlays allow you to chew comfortably and confidently, restoring full functionality to your repaired teeth.

Inlays & Onlays Procedure Steps
Here’s what you can expect during the inlays and onlays treatment:
- Dental Examination
Your dentist will examine the damaged tooth, often with X-rays, to determine if you’re a candidate for an inlay or onlay.
- Tooth Preparation
The decayed or damaged area is carefully cleaned and shaped. Unlike crowns, this process preserves more of your natural tooth structure.
- Impressions & Temporary Filling
An impression of the tooth is taken and sent to a lab to create your custom inlay or onlay. A temporary filling may be placed to protect the tooth in the meantime.
- Fitting the Restoration
At your next appointment, the inlay or onlay is checked for fit and color match, then permanently bonded to your tooth using high-strength dental cement.
- Polishing & Final Adjustments
The restoration is polished and adjusted to ensure a perfect bite and comfortable feel.
