These custom-made restorations are crafted in a dental laboratory based on a model of your teeth and are designed to fit precisely into the prepared cavity or on top of the surface of the tooth to restore its shape and function.
Compared to direct fillings, which are applied directly to the tooth in the dental chair, inlays and onlays have several advantages. They are less prone to shrinkage and can be much stronger and longer lasting than direct fillings, making them a popular choice for repairing moderate to extensive damage.
Additionally, they offer greater aesthetics as they can be matched to the natural colour of your teeth, resulting in a seamless, natural-looking restoration.
The process of getting an inlay or onlay typically requires two visits to our clinic. During the first visit, we will remove the damaged or decayed portion of the tooth and take a scan of your teeth to send to the dental laboratory. A temporary restoration will be placed to protect the tooth until your next visit. At your second appointment, the custom-made restoration will be fitted and bonded to your tooth with a specialised dental adhesive.
If you have a damaged or decayed tooth that requires restoration, our professional dental team at Visage can help determine whether an inlay or onlay is the right choice for you. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and start your journey towards a healthy, restored smile.
We provide inlay/onlays from £650. Our treatment plans are customised to suit your needs and budget, with an array of payment plans available to ensure this treatment is accessible to everyone.
