Custom-created inlays restore your teeth beautifully.

Inlays restore back teeth. We often recommend inlays because they are one of the highest quality options available. They preserve tooth structure, and are more durable than some of our other choices. Inlays are custom-made to fit precisely between the cusps of your teeth.

The procedure:

Restoring your teeth with inlay take several steps. We carefully prepare your teeth, then take an impression and send it to a dental laboratory. There, a model of your teeth is made and used to create your inlay from porcelain, gold or other alloys, or a combination, depending on your situation.

On your next visit, the inlays are placed in your teeth, and are adjusted for a precise fit. Once that is achieved, we cement the inlays, polish and check them one more time for the accuracy of your bite. Then the appearance and function of your teeth will be restored!
