Do you have a large cavity or damaged tooth that needs more than a traditional filling but less than a full crown? At Dental Partners of Fifth Avenue, located on the Upper East Side of New York City, our porcelain onlays and inlays offer a durable, natural-looking, and conservative solution to restore the function and aesthetics of your teeth. These custom-crafted restorations provide exceptional strength and seamlessly blend with your natural smile.
Porcelain onlays and inlays are custom-made restorations used to repair moderate to large cavities, fractured teeth, or to replace large, worn-out metal or composite fillings. Unlike direct fillings that are placed and shaped within the mouth during a single visit, onlays and inlays are fabricated in a dental laboratory based on precise impressions of your prepared tooth.
Both inlays and onlays are made from high-quality porcelain, a material prized for its strength, durability, and ability to mimic the natural color and translucency of tooth enamel.
You may be a good candidate for porcelain onlays or inlays if you have:
• A large cavity that is too extensive for a traditional filling.
• A fractured tooth where a significant portion of the chewing surface is damaged.
• Large, old metal fillings that you wish to replace with a more aesthetic and biocompatible option.
• A tooth with structural weakness that needs reinforcement.
• A desire for a durable and natural-looking restoration.
Our experienced dentists at Dental Partners of Fifth Avenue will carefully evaluate your individual needs to determine if porcelain onlays or inlays are the best treatment option for you.
