Inlays & Onlays in Fort Lauderdale – A Durable, Conservative Solution

When a tooth is too damaged for a simple filling but doesn’t require a full crown, inlays and onlays offer an ideal solution. These custom-made restorations are designed to repair decay or structural damage while preserving more of your natural tooth.

Inlays fit within the grooves of a tooth, reinforcing its structure.
Onlays extend over the cusps of a tooth, providing additional coverage and protection.

Made from high-quality porcelain or composite resin, inlays and onlays create a strong, long-lasting restoration that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between inlays and onlays?

Inlays are designed to fit within the grooves of a tooth, repairing damage without covering the cusps. Onlays, on the other hand, extend over the cusps of the tooth, providing additional coverage and reinforcement for more extensive damage.

How long do inlays and onlays last?

With proper care, inlays and onlays can last 10-15 years or more. Their durability depends on good oral hygiene, regular dental check-ups, and avoiding habits like teeth grinding.

Are inlays and onlays better than fillings?

Yes, in many cases. Inlays and onlays are made from stronger, more durable materials than traditional fillings, providing better protection for weakened teeth while maintaining a more natural look.

Is the procedure painful?

The procedure is minimally invasive, and we ensure your comfort with local anesthesia. Most patients experience little to no discomfort during or after treatment.

How do I care for my inlays or onlays?

Caring for your inlays and onlays is easy—brush and floss regularly, visit your dentist for check-ups, and avoid biting on hard objects like ice or pens to prevent damage.
