Restore Damaged Teeth with Inlays and Onlays in Gahanna, Ohio

When a tooth has moderate decay or damage, inlays and onlays offer a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution. At Beecher Crossing Dental, we provide custom inlays and onlays that restore the strength and appearance of your teeth, ensuring a long-lasting and natural-looking result.

What are Inlays and Onlays?

Inlays and onlays are custom-made restorations used to repair teeth with moderate damage or decay that is too extensive for a regular filling but not severe enough to require a full crown. Inlays fit within the grooves of the tooth, while onlays extend over one or more cusps of the tooth. Both are crafted from durable materials like porcelain, composite resin, or gold, and are designed to match the natural color of your teeth.

Benefits of Inlays and Onlays

• Durable and Long-Lasting: Inlays and onlays are made from strong materials that withstand chewing forces and can last for many years with proper care.
• Preserve Tooth Structure: These restorations require less removal of the natural tooth structure compared to crowns, preserving more of your healthy tooth.
• Custom Fit: Inlays and onlays are precisely crafted to fit the contours of your tooth, providing a seamless and comfortable fit.
• Aesthetic Appeal: The materials used can be color-matched to your natural teeth, ensuring an aesthetically pleasing result.
