At Town Dental Group in Mint Hill, when we repair a tooth that has decay or damage, the procedure chosen often depends on the location of the problem. We’re talking tooth-specific locale here.

If there is a chip, crack, or tooth decay on the biting surface of a tooth, an onlay or inlay is often created to restore the tooth.

Inlays and onlays are a type of tooth restoration. They are usually bigger than a conventional filling yet smaller than a complete crown. An inlay is used to fill an area inside the cusp tips or bumps of a tooth. An onlay covers an area that includes more than one cusp.

Town Dental Group inlays and onlays:

  • Are beautifully matched to natural teeth
  • Are stain resistant
  • Do not bring about tooth sensitivity
  • Strengthen the tooth and protect against further decay or weakening
