If your teeth have too much damage or decay in the tooth structure to be successfully treated using a filling, but have sufficient healthy tooth remaining to avoid the need for a crown, dental inlays and onlays allow Dr. Ranu to conserve more of your original tooth structure.
Inlays and Onlays are made from tough, hard-wearing materials which last up to 30 years and can help to strengthen your teeth by up to 75 percent. A dental inlay is similar to a filling and fits inside the cusp tips (top edges) of the tooth. A dental onlay is more extensive and extends over the cusps of the treated tooth.
