Dental Inlays & Onlays in Bolton

At Dentistry in Bolton, we offer dental inlays and onlays for patients who are looking to repair damaged, cracked, or misshaped teeth.

What are inlays and onlays?

Dental Inlays in Bolton
An inlay is similar to a filling and fits inside the cusp tips (top edges) of the tooth.

Dental Onlays in Bolton
An onlay is the same as an inlay except that it masks more surface area, as they cover over cusps of a tooth.

What are inlays and onlays used for?

Inlays and onlays are used to repair misshaped, broken, uneven, damaged, or chipped teeth. They often match your natural enamel and your original tooth shape. Inlays and onlays are custom designed in-office at the lab.

What will my onlay or inlay appointment look like?

At your first appointment, our dentist at Dentistry in Bolton will begin to remove the decayed section of the tooth.
After the tooth has been removed, a mould of your teeth is created.
An alternate filling will be placed on the tooth for about two weeks.
At your second appointment, our dentist will begin to place the restoration on the tooth.
