When Should I Get a Dental Inlay or Onlay?
Dental inlays and onlays are ideal when a tooth is too damaged for a regular filling but not compromised enough to require a crown. An inlay or onlay can effectively restore teeth with extensive decay or fractures on the biting surfaces.

How Do You Apply Dental Inlays and Onlays?
The application of inlays and onlays involves removing the damaged portion of the tooth and taking an impression. This impression is used to create a custom inlay or onlay, which we then bond to the tooth. The result is a restored function and appearance.
