Inlays, Onlays & Porcelain Crowns

There are situations where the damage caused to a tooth by decay is too extensive to be treated with a simple filling, but not large enough to require a full crown.

Inlays & Onlays

In these cases, the best option for restoring the tooth may be an inlay. Inlays are porcelain restorations used on the posterior teeth (molars or premolars) to replace composite fillings and amalgams (fillings). They are ecological, restore the initial strength to the treated teeth, do not expand nor compress in hot or cold such as amalgams and they are far more aesthetic.

These restorations are strong, durable, offer superior protection against recurrent cavities and do not require a high level of maintenance.

Porcelain Crowns

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped "cap" that is placed over a tooth to restore its size, strength and / or improve its shape and appearance. The crown, when cemented in place, completely covers the entire visible part of a tooth which is at and above the gum line.

Why is a dental crown necessary?

A dental crown may be necessary in the following situations:

Save a tooth that has been so badly damaged by decay that it cannot support a filling.
Protect a weak tooth against breakage or to hold parts of a cracked tooth together.
Restore a broken tooth or a badly worn tooth.
Cover and support a tooth with a large filling when there is not much dental structure left.
Keep a dental bridge in place.
Cover malformed or severely discolored teeth.
Make a cosmetic modification.
Cover a dental implant.
