Suffering from tooth damage? Inlays or onlays could be the right solution to repair your tooth damage…
What are inlays and onlays?
Inlays and onlays can be porcelain, gold, or composite resin and are bonded to the damaged area of a tooth. An inlay is similar to a filling and lies inside the tooth; an onlay is larger and sits on top of parts of a tooth.
When are they used?
To repair damage involving over half of the tooth’s biting surface, at Ironside Advanced Dental we will often use an inlay or an onlay.
Did you know…
Inlays and onlays are bonded directly into the tooth with special resins and can actually increase the strength of the tooth by up to 75% and can last from 10 to 30 years.
