An inlay or onlay is a partial crown usually made of porcelain. Where dentists once went for a full crown, they nowadays increasingly opt for these partial restorations where less dental tissue has to be sacrificed. Inlays and onlays are manufactured by the dental technician and are therefore often more aesthetic but also more expensive than a normal filling.

 

Include bleaching? If, as part of the cosmetic treatment plan, you also choose to whiten your teeth, then it is important to match the color of your inlay/onlay to the new, whiter color of your teeth. We are happy to advise you on this.
