How Inlays & Onlays Work
Inlays and onlays are custom dental restorations used when a tooth needs more support than a filling can offer but does not require a full crown. Inlays sit within the natural grooves of the tooth, while onlays extend over one or more cusps for added coverage.
At North Cape Coral Dental, we begin with a digital scan to capture precise details of your tooth. Your restoration is then expertly fabricated in a dental lab and permanently bonded in place. This approach delivers a strong, aesthetic, and long-lasting solution designed to reinforce and protect your tooth.

Inlays & Onlays FAQ
What’s the difference between an inlay and an onlay?
Inlays fit within the tooth’s surface; onlays cover a larger area and can replace one or more cusps.
Are they better than traditional fillings?
Yes—for larger cavities or cracks, inlays and onlays offer a more durable and long-lasting solution.
How long do inlays and onlays last?
With proper care, they can last 10–30 years or more.
Will they match my natural teeth?
Absolutely. We use tooth-colored materials that blend beautifully with your smile.
Is the procedure painful?
Not at all. We use gentle techniques and local anesthesia to keep you comfortable throughout your visit.
