Understanding Inlays and Onlays
Inlays and onlays are custom-made indirect restorations used when a tooth has damage too extensive for a filling but not severe enough to require a full crown. Here’s what sets them apart:
- Inlays fit within the cusps (top edges) of the tooth
- Onlays cover one or more cusps and extend over the sides of the tooth
- Made from durable materials like porcelain or composite resin
- Custom-crafted in a dental laboratory for a precise fit
- Preserve more natural tooth structure compared to full crowns

If you have any questions about inlays and onlay, we’ve got answers.
How long does the dental inlay or onlay procedure take?
The procedure traditionally required two appointments, but with advancements in CAD/CAM technology, it can now often be completed in a single visit. This technology allows for the restoration to be milled and placed on the same day.
How long will my dental inlay or onlay last?
With proper care, your dental inlay or onlay can last up to 15 years or more.
Does dental insurance cover the cost of dental inlays and onlays?
Most dental insurance plans cover a portion of the cost of dental onlays, and we offer financing options for those who need them.
How to Care for New Dental Crown?
Dental crowns are extremely durable, but they require good oral hygiene to ensure they last as long as possible. Always plan to brush around your crown twice a day, and be sure to floss around the crown daily. Flossing will not remove a permanent crown.
