Onlays

A dental onlay is a custom-made restoration used to repair a damaged or decayed tooth, typically when the damage is too extensive for a filling but not severe enough to require a full crown. Sometimes referred to as a "partial crown," an onlay fits over the biting surface of the tooth and can extend to one or more cusps (the raised points on the tooth).

Made from a durable ceramic, dental onlays are designed to match the natural shape and color of your teeth for a seamless feel and appearance. They restore both the function and strength of the tooth while preserving more of your natural structure compared to a full crown.

Benefits of Dental Onlays:

  • Durable and long-lasting

  • Preserves more natural tooth structure

  • Custom-fit for optimal comfort and function

  • Natural-looking, especially when made from tooth-colored materials
