Dental Inlays & Dental Onlays

Cosmetic Dentistry: Fillings, Veneers, Protect What's Left, Crowns, Bridges

A dental Inlay or Onlay is a porcelain restoration which is bonded "into or onto" the back tooth. This type of restoration can increase the strength of a tooth and is a more conservative option than a crown.

Inlays or Onlays are used rather than white fillings, when a harder and more durable restoration is required for one or more reasons, such as:

• Larger cavities
• The tooth has fractures or small cracks
• The tooth is used heavily for chewing

TLC Dental may recommend Inlays or Onlays as long term solutions as they will restore your tooth almost to its original strength, whilst remaining virtually invisible.
