Inlays & onlays
When a tooth has too much damage for a simple filling — but not enough for a full crown — an inlay or onlay provides the perfect middle ground. These custom restorations strengthen the tooth, protect the remaining structure, and blend in naturally.
They’re durable, precise, and designed to extend the life of your natural tooth.
Why inlays and onlays matters
They allow us to repair damage without removing more natural teeth than necessary. Inlays fit inside the grooves of the tooth, while onlays cover a larger area — sometimes including the cusp.
Both help restore your bite, reduce sensitivity, and protect the tooth long-term.
What happens during an inlay or onlay appointment
We begin by reviewing the tooth and removing any decay or weakened areas. A detailed scan or impression is taken so your custom restoration fits precisely.
A temporary filling protects the tooth while the lab creates your inlay or onlay. At the final visit, we secure the restoration, refine your bite, and polish it so it feels seamless
Financing options, insurance support, and clear explanations — all in one place.
