When more than half of the tooth’s biting surface is damaged, your Derby Dental Care doctor may offer an inlay or onlay.
WHAT ARE DENTAL INLAYS AND ONLAYS?
Inlays and onlays are bonded to the damaged area of the tooth when over half of the tooth surface is missing. Porcelain inlays and onlays will perfectly match the color of your surrounding teeth. Due to the use of porcelain, they can increase the strength of your tooth by up to 75 percent. Porcelain inlays and onlays from Derby Dental Care can last 10 to 30 years with proper care. Contact your Derby Dental Care doctor if you have questions about dental inlays and onlays.
