If one-third
to one-half of your molar tooth's biting surface
is decayed, or has a filling that needs replacing,
an inlay or onlay may be a better option than a
filling. These restorations are best used when
morethan a filling is needed but less than a crown
will
do. An inlay
is placed in between the cusps
of the tooth, whereas an onlay will cover one or
more of the cusps. They can be made of a gold alloy,
porcelain or tooth-colored resin and are cemented
into place. We now offer Cerec Inlays and Onlays
and can complete them in just one visit!
