Inlays and Onlays in NYC
Restore your normal tooth structure for a gorgeous smile.
More Conservative Restoration than a Crown
For some types of tooth damage, a dental crown is too much, but a dental filling is not enough. In these cases, our dentists turn to dental inlays and onlays. These treatments fill in the cavities and restore the natural form of a damaged tooth.
The inlays or onlays protect the tooth from further decay and restore your ability to chew and speak properly. Not to mention, they will give you a flawless smile.
Inlays vs. Onlays
One of the most common questions our dentists get is: what’s the difference between inlays and onlays?
Onlays cover a bigger area than an inlay. A dental inlay fills in the holes and gaps in the areas between the cusps of the teeth. In comparison, a dental onlay fills in cavities and covers the cusps and a portion of the tooth surface. Your treatment will depend on the extent of the damage.
Our Process
