Inlays And Onlays

Inlays And Onlays

Cavities were once known as extremely negative things that occurred if you ate too much sugar. Of course, having an improper diet can contribute to cavities, but there are many different reasons why a cavity may form between your teeth.

If a regular filling can’t fill the hole, there’s no reason to panic. Our clinic is well-equipped for dental restoration, and we’ll close that gap quickly and efficiently. No one will know it was there.

The equipped team at Sarasota Dental Group, Drs. Fabiani and Karp in Sarasota, FL, is proud to serve the local community with quality dental care services, including top-notch inlays and outlays, so that you can preserve your tooth structure and maintain your overall sense of well-being.

What Are Inlays and Onlays?

If a filling is too small for the tooth, the gap will need a custom “puzzle piece” to complete the tooth structure.

At its root, this is essentially what inlays and onlays are.

They’re made from solid materials like porcelain or gold and are bonded directly to your tooth.

Specifically, here’s what they do:

• Inlays: These fit within the cusps of your tooth, like filling in a hole.
• Onlays: These cover one or more cusps of your tooth, offering extra protection.
