Protect and Strengthen Your Back Teeth
Dental inlays and onlays are precise, custom-made restorations designed to strengthen and protect teeth affected by decay, wear, or large fillings. They are ideal for back teeth where traditional fillings may not provide enough support.
At Cygnet House Dental Studio, we create restorations that are functional, durable, and natural-looking, helping you maintain a healthy, confident smile. We welcome patients from across Lincolnshire, including Alford, Horncastle, Louth, Mablethorpe, Skegness, and Woodhall Spa.
Inlays – fit within the cusps (corners) of the tooth, ideal for medium-sized cavities
Onlays – cover one or more cusps, providing extra protection for more extensive damage
Both treatments require minimal preparation of your natural tooth and are custom-crafted to match the colour and shape of your existing teeth.
Inlays and onlays can be made from:
Tooth-coloured porcelain or composite – most popular for a natural appearance
Metal alloys – sometimes used for strength in specific cases
Our preferred approach is tooth-coloured restorations, which blend seamlessly with your smile while providing long-lasting strength.
We may recommend an inlay or onlay to:
Protect a tooth damaged by decay
Strengthen worn teeth, e.g., from grinding or clenching
Reduce sensitivity
Replace weakened silver fillings
First appointment – Dimitrios or Rose prepares the tooth and takes a precise impression for the dental laboratory
Lab fabrication – skilled technicians craft your custom inlay or onlay for perfect fit and function
Second appointment – the inlay or onlay is bonded in place, restoring strength, appearance, and bite
The result is a durable, natural-looking restoration that protects your tooth for many years with proper care.
If you need to strengthen or restore a back tooth, schedule a consultation at Cygnet House Dental Studio. Our experienced team provides expertly crafted, tooth-coloured inlays and onlays for optimal function and aesthetics.
We serve patients from Louth, Skegness, Horncastle, Mablethorpe, Alford, Woodhall Spa, and surrounding areas.
