Dental Inlays & Onlays Marietta, GA

Dental inlays and onlays are versatile restorative treatments designed to repair teeth that have sustained moderate damage or decay. They provide an excellent alternative to traditional fillings and crowns, preserving your tooth structure while improving functionality and aesthetics. At Burton Dental Care, our dentist and team offer dental inlays and onlays in Marietta, Georgia, to help patients achieve healthier and more beautiful smiles.

What Are Dental Inlays and Onlays?

Inlays and onlays are custom-made restorations crafted from durable materials such as porcelain, composite resin or gold. They are designed to fit seamlessly into or onto a damaged tooth.

  • Inlays: These are used to fill cavities or damage that occur within the cusps (or grooves) of the tooth.
  • Onlays: Also known as partial crowns, onlays are used for more extensive damage that extends beyond the cusps, covering a larger portion of the tooth.

Dr. Joshua Burton will assess the extent of damage to determine whether an inlay or onlay is the best solution for restoring your tooth’s function and appearance.

Benefits of Dental Inlays and Onlays

Inlays and onlays offer a range of benefits that make them a preferred option for many patients:

  • Preserve natural tooth structure: They require less removal of the tooth compared to crowns.
  • Durable and long-lasting: Made from strong materials that can withstand daily chewing forces.
  • Natural appearance: Blend seamlessly with your natural teeth for a discreet restoration.
  • Improved oral health: Protect the tooth from further decay or damage.
  • Custom fit: Designed specifically for your tooth to ensure a secure and comfortable fit.

These restorations are ideal for patients who require more than a filling but want a less invasive option than a full crown.
