Inlays and Onlays

Inlays and onlays are able to restore your tooth so it remains healthy in your mouth for a long time. When there is damage to a tooth but the root is still intact, inlays or onlays, commonly called partial crowns, can ensure the tooth remains in place. We offer inlays and onlays here at Bridge Smiles Dental Group P.A. in our Somerville, NJ and Neshanic Station, NJ locations.


As mentioned before, inlays and onlays are like partial crowns. Inlays take care of the chewing surface within the cusps. Onlays take care of the chewing surface plus one or more cusps. They take care of damaged tooth when there is no need for a full crown but when there is more damage than a filling can hold. Inlays and onlays can be made of gold, composite resin, or porcelain. Taking good care of the inlay or onlay will ensure long-lasting protection. With good care, they can last for over thirty years.


The options with composite resin or porcelain are tooth colored and are made to blend right in with your teeth. The inlays and onlays are completely customized to your specific tooth. This aids the best bond and the most successful outcome. It also helps create your natural-looking smile.


If you are looking to repair the look and strength of your teeth, look no further. Schedule an appointment in our Somerville, NJ office by calling (908) 725-0400 or schedule at our Neshanic Station, NJ office by calling (908) 782-4418.
