Inlays and Onlays
A dental inlay or onlay repairs and strengthens a tooth when a traditional filling cannot provide enough support, but the tooth still has enough healthy structure to avoid a full crown. These custom restorations allow us to preserve as much of your natural tooth as possible while restoring its function and appearance.
With CEREC technology, we can digitally design and create certain inlays and onlays in our Redmond dental office, offering a precise, comfortable restoration without the need for traditional impressions.
How Are Inlays and Onlays Different?
- Inlay — An inlay repairs damage within the chewing surface of a tooth, fitting between the tooth’s natural cusps.
- Onlay — An onlay covers a larger area and extends over one or more cusps. We may recommend an onlay when damage extends beyond the center of the tooth but does not require a full crown.
Is an Inlay or Onlay Right for You?
We examine your tooth, assess the extent of the damage, and discuss your treatment options before recommending a restoration. We consider your bite, oral health, and the location and condition of the tooth to determine which option best meets your needs.
