Inlays and Onlays in Mulund West | SmilesRoyale Dental Clinic
Advanced Tooth Restoration with Inlays & Onlays
At SmilesRoyale Dental Clinic, Mulund West, we provide high-precision inlays and onlays for patients who need stronger, long-lasting restorations without opting for a full dental crown.
If your tooth is damaged, worn out, or has a large cavity that a regular filling cannot support, inlays and onlays offer an excellent, conservative, and durable solution.
What Are Inlays and Onlays?
Inlays and Onlays are custom-made restorations used to repair moderate tooth decay, fractures, or structural damage.
Inlay
An inlay fits inside the grooves of your tooth, similar to a filling but stronger and more precise.
Onlay
An onlay covers one or more cusps of your tooth, providing additional strength while preserving healthy enamel.
Both restorations are designed in a dental laboratory for a perfect fit and are bonded securely to your tooth for structural stability.
When Do You Need Inlays or Onlays?
You may be the right candidate if:
- You have large cavities
- A tooth filling has failed or cracked
- The tooth is too damaged for a regular filling
- You want to avoid excessive tooth cutting required for a crown
- The tooth needs added strength and long-term support
At SmilesRoyale, we recommend inlays/onlays after evaluating your tooth structure, bite pattern, and long-term oral health.
Why Choose Inlays & Onlays Over Fillings or Crowns?
Superior Strength & Durability
Inlays and onlays are made from high-quality ceramic or composite materials that provide long-term strength and resist daily wear.
Minimal Tooth Removal
Unlike crowns, they preserve maximum natural tooth structure, making the procedure conservative.
Highly Accurate Fit
Digital scanning and lab-crafted designs ensure a precise, comfortable, and natural-feeling restoration.
Natural Appearance
They blend with the shade of your natural teeth, providing a seamless aesthetic result.
Long Lifespan
With proper care, inlays and onlays last significantly longer than traditional fillings.
