What are Inlays and Onlays?

At Thyme Dental Care in Midtown & Upper East Side, NY, we are committed to providing our patients with the highest quality dental care. When it comes to restoring damaged or decayed teeth, we offer durable and aesthetically pleasing solutions such as inlays and onlays. Inlays and onlays are conservative restorations that can strengthen and enhance the appearance of your teeth. With our expertise in inlays and onlays, we can help you achieve a healthy and beautiful smile.


Inlays and onlays are dental restorations that are used to repair teeth with moderate to extensive damage or decay. They are often made from durable materials such as porcelain, composite resin, or gold. Inlays are used when the damage or decay is within the cusps of the tooth, while onlays extend over one or more cusps to provide additional support and coverage.

How Thyme Dental Care can help

Restoring Tooth Structure: Inlays and onlays are designed to restore the damaged or decayed tooth structure while preserving as much of the natural tooth as possible. Unlike traditional dental crowns that cover the entire tooth, inlays and onlays allow for a more conservative approach, maintaining the strength and integrity of the remaining tooth structure.


Strengthening Teeth: Inlays and onlays are bonded directly to the tooth surface, providing excellent stability and strength. They reinforce the tooth, making it less susceptible to further damage or fracture. By restoring the strength of the tooth, inlays and onlays promote long-term oral health and prevent the need for more extensive treatments in the future.


Aesthetics: Inlays and onlays are custom-made to match the color and shape of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and natural-looking restoration. Whether you choose porcelain, composite resin, or another material, our dental professionals at Thyme Dental Care in Midtown & Upper East Side, NY will create inlays and onlays that blend harmoniously with your smile, enhancing its beauty and restoring your confidence.


Longevity: Inlays and onlays are known for their durability and longevity. They are crafted from high-quality materials that are resistant to wear and provide long-lasting results. With proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits, inlays and onlays can last for many years, offering a reliable and cost-effective solution for tooth restoration.


Preserving Tooth Structure: Inlays and onlays require minimal removal of healthy tooth structure compared to traditional crowns. This conservative approach ensures that as much of the natural tooth structure is preserved as possible, maintaining its strength and function. By preserving tooth structure, inlays and onlays contribute to the overall health and longevity of your teeth.


Customized and Precise Fit: Inlays and onlays are custom-made to fit your tooth precisely. This ensures a snug and accurate fit, minimizing the risk of recurrent decay or damage. Our dental professionals at Thyme Dental Care in Midtown & Upper East Side, NY will take precise impressions of your tooth, ensuring that your inlay or onlay is crafted to the exact specifications required for optimal function and aesthetics.
