Inlays and Onlays in Charlotte, NC

Imagine Dentistry

Dental inlays and onlays are used for restoring decayed teeth to their original conditions. They are one of the best treatment procedures for providing strength to your damaged teeth. The process does not involve removing healthy tooth structure, and hence it is a conservative approach. These are fabricated in a dental lab and then bonded to your prepared teeth by dentists. So, if you are looking for the best treatment method for your broken and decayed teeth, then contact us at Imagine Dentistry. Our dental office in Charlotte has highly advanced equipment and experienced dentists who will look after your dental health.

Depending on the extent of damage to your teeth, you will be recommended either an inlay or onlay. Your dentist will first check your tooth’s condition, and then she will decide the appropriate treatment procedure for you. Inlays fit within the grooves present within the cusps of your teeth. Onlays, on the other hand, fit within the grooves but wrap up and over the cusps. They help in covering most of the surface of your teeth. Thus, it can be concluded that onlays help when damage on the tooth is more extensive.

You will be given local anesthesia during the procedure. Residual pain is infrequent in this treatment. You might experience a slight discomfort post-operatively, but that will be temporary. People adapt almost immediately to the new chewing surface.

So, if you have large cavities that cannot be treated with fillings but are healthy enough for inlays and onlays, schedule an appointment with Dr. Ann Coambs today. Call us at 704-540-7600.

I have severe dental office phobia, but between the front desk staff, the hygienist (Tiffany) making me laugh by telling me stories about her kids & Dr. Coambs “chairside manner”, I sailed right through!

Dr. Coambs and her staff are absolutely top notch. They make you feel like part of the family. The take the time to explain all the options and what the best outcome will be for you. They are by far the best dentist office I’ve ever worked with, I’ve been going to the dentist since I was 8 and broke an adult tooth. I’ve never felt more appreciated or important than I do when I go to their office. Dr. Coambs you ROCK!
