What are inlays & onlays?

When decay erodes a portion of your tooth or you’ve lost part of a tooth due to a large cavity, it’s essential to fill in the tooth with the appropriate amount of restorative material.

Inlays and onlays in Chandler, Arizona are two options that we use to ensure that we’re filling in your damaged teeth with the right proportion of materials. Inlays and onlays in Chandler, Arizona are two restorative options for fixing damaged teeth:

  1. Inlays: An inlay functions similarly to a filling in that it’s used to fill in the space inside of your tooth. They may be used in the area between the cusps of your tooth.
  2. Onlays: An onlay also fits inside of your tooth, like a filling or inlay, but it extends onto the chewing surfaces of the tooth to replace the tooth’s cusps.

What are the benefits of inlays & onlays?

When fixing a damaged tooth, we strive to choose a repair procedure that uses the right amount of restorative material and adds the necessary level of strength and stability to fortify and protect the tooth. Inlays and onlays are some of the restorative procedures that allow us to best tend to our patients’ dental concerns. There are also multiple benefits associated with inlays and onlays in Chandler, Arizona.

A Natural Looking Repair
While traditional inlays and onlays used gold to fill the tooth, today’s inlays and onlays use a natural looking composite material that’s the same color as your tooth.

Longevity
When used in the correct circumstances, inlays and onlays are a long-lasting option for repairing damaged teeth.
