Inlay and Onlay Introduction

INTRODUCTION

Inlays and Onlays, also known as ceramic fillings, offer a durable and long-lasting solution for the restoration of teeth that may have been compromised due to various reasons, such as tooth decay, trauma, or large fillings.

Unlike traditional dental fillings which are made of resin, glass ionomer polymer, or silver amalgam, inlays and onlays are fabricated using high-strength ceramic or resin hybrid ceramics, providing enhanced strength and durability. This treatment aims to preserve the natural tooth structure, improve aesthetics, and maintain the functionality of the affected tooth.
