Porcelain Inlays and Onlays In Pewaukee, WI

Inlays and onlays are custom dental restorations used to repair teeth with moderate decay or damage. Unlike traditional fillings, which are placed directly into a cavity, inlays and onlays are crafted in a dental lab and then bonded to the tooth for a more durable and natural-looking result. Inlays are used to fill cavities on the flat surfaces of a tooth, while onlays cover larger areas, including the cusps.

At Healthy Smiles in Pewaukee, Dr. Hamedi uses high-quality materials to create inlays and onlays that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, offering both strength and aesthetic appeal. These restorations are an excellent alternative to crowns for patients who want to preserve more of their natural tooth structure while achieving a long-lasting, functional result. We proudly serve patients in Pewaukee, Waukesha, Brookfield, and surrounding areas. Contact Healthy Smiles today to schedule your consultation and discover if inlays or onlays are the right solution for you.
