Inlays and Onlays at Drayton Dental Care

Protect your teeth. Preserve your smile.

At Drayton Dental Care, your dental health is our top priority. If we identify tooth decay or damage during your dental health review, we’ll recommend the most effective and minimally invasive treatment to restore your smile. When a standard filling isn’t enough but a crown isn’t yet necessary, an inlay or onlay offers the ideal middle ground.

What Are Inlays and Onlays?

Inlays and onlays are custom-made restorations used to repair teeth that are too damaged for traditional fillings but don’t require full crowns.

  • Inlays are used to restore the biting surface of a tooth (within the cusps)
  • Onlays cover a larger area, including one or more cusps of the tooth

These restorations are crafted from high-strength ceramic for durability and a flawless aesthetic, blending seamlessly with your natural teeth.

Why Choose Inlays or Onlays?

  • Custom-crafted for a natural, seamless look
  • Strong and durable – longer-lasting than a standard filling
  • Minimally invasive – preserves more of your natural tooth
  • Helps prevent future damage and decay
  • Fabricated using the highest quality ceramic materials

Absolutely fantastic dental care. Really superb support and work from Vasiliki and Ashlee. Thank you.

Your Inlay or Onlay Treatment Journey

  1. First Appointment
    We’ll assess your tooth, remove any decay, and take precise digital scans or impressions. A temporary restoration will be placed to protect the tooth while your inlay or onlay is crafted.
  2. Second Appointment
    Once your custom ceramic restoration is ready, we’ll securely bond it in place. We’ll check your bite and ensure everything fits comfortably.
  3. Ongoing Dental Health Reviews
    To keep your restoration — and the rest of your mouth — in excellent condition, we recommend regular dental health checks and hygiene visits.
