Regain The Smile You Deserve With Inlays/Onlays in Toronto 

At Dental Care Group in Toronto, we are pleased to provide inlays and onlays in Toronto as effective treatment options for restoring teeth that are decayed, weakened, or cracked. Inlays and onlays are also known as indirect fillings. They are used to create a strong bond with your tooth structure while maintaining the natural shape of your teeth.

What is the difference between inlays and onlays?

Inlays fill cavities and hollows in the areas between the cusps of your teeth. Onlays extend past the cusps of your teeth and effectively restore large or broken areas without performing a complete crown restoration. For those considering their options for restoring tooth structure and integrity, understanding inlays and onlays dental treatments is essential. These conservative alternatives to full crowns not only help preserve more of your natural tooth structure but also offer a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution.

How are inlays and onlays fitted?

Getting an inlay/onlay is a straightforward procedure. Our experienced dentist will assess the condition of your teeth and determine the best treatment option for you. We will take impressions of your teeth, which are then sent to a dental lab, where they will be crafted and custom-made to fit snugly and comfortably. Once the porcelain onlay is ready, it is carefully fitted to ensure it blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. Porcelain onlays are particularly valued for their durability and natural appearance, making them an excellent choice for restoring teeth that have been compromised by decay or damage.

What are the benefits of getting inlays/onlays?

Inlays/onlays provide a strong, durable, and long-lasting solution for restoring your teeth that is both aesthetically pleasing and comfortable. They are also stain-resistant and will help to protect the tooth from bacterial infection. They are durable and can last as long as 15 years. When considering the longevity and effectiveness of these treatments, it’s important to discuss the benefits of inlays and onlays dental solutions with your dentist. These restorations are specifically designed to fit perfectly within the contours of your teeth, reinforcing the structure while minimizing the removal of your natural tooth material.
