Inlays and Onlays
Do you desire a restoration that is more beautiful and stronger than traditional metal or tooth colored fillings? Ask us about our porcelain inlays and onlays. Believe it or not, not all teeth with damaged fillings due to wear or decay need a crown for protection. Inlays and onlays are more conservative restorations that are highly effective in restoring your teeth without removing as much tooth structure as is necessary with a crown. They are made of the same stunning porcelain as our crowns, generally offering many more years of service than a traditional silver or tooth colored filling.
Have you not heard of an inlay or onlay? We are not surprised. These conservative restorations have been utilized for years as cast gold fillings; but have turned into somewhat of a lost art due to the soaring costs of gold. Today they are often overlooked in many practices because they require incredible precision in their preparation. At our office, we are proud to offer these beautiful precise restorations to you and your loved ones.
