Inlays & Onlays Orlando FL
Inlays and Onlays are dental restorations that can work as a great alternative to crowns and fillings. They can be put in place to fill cavities and dental decays. It is mainly used when the decay is too big for fillings but not as big that it would require a crown. They are much more substantial than fillings but not as intrusive as a crown. The procedure is minimally invasive in nature.
The inlays fills the tooth in the area between the cusps. Onlay would not only fill up those areas, but they can also work for a larger area, like the area that includes the cusps. Their working is quite similar to that of the crown, but they do not cover the entire structure of your teeth. Inalys and Onlays are made of the same material in the dental lab, but they are a bit different in terms of the area that they cover.
There are basically two types of inlays and onlays, namely direct and indirect. The direct ones are made on spot by the dentist in their office. It is an easy process and the whole procedure can be executed in a single-visit. The indirect ones are customized in dental labs, which means the procedure will take at least two visits to complete.
