Sometimes referred to as "partial crowns", cast ceramic inlays and onlays can work to restore the color, shape and contour of your teeth, leaving you with a picture-perfect smile. Inlays and onlays are often included as part of cosmetic dental treatments to replace metal fillings for those who desire a more natural-looking smile.
Inlays and onlays are molded to fit your teeth precisely. Inlays are designed to match the grooves between the cusps of a tooth. Onlays cover more tooth surface, often including the tips of those cusps. These procedures can strengthen the overall structure of your tooth and, because the restorations are bonded and sealed, prevent bacteria from entering to form new cavities. Because they only require minimal elimination of tooth structure, inlays and onlays demand much greater dental expertise than regular fillings; the kind of meticulous expertise that our advanced trained dentists have achieved.
Keeping your teeth decay-free and your smile beautifully white is our focus at Dental Excellence of Napoleon. We recommend ensuring the health and beauty of your new porcelain restorations with regular periodontal exams and a good home hygiene program.
Call our Napoleon office for a consultation to see how we can restore the health and beauty of your smile.
*Inlays and onlays are available at our Napoleon location.
