Benefit | How It Helps You |
Longevity | With proper care, inlays and onlays can last 15–20 years, often outlasting traditional fillings. |
Preserves Tooth Structure | Less natural tooth is removed than with a dental crown, making this a more conservative treatment. |
Superior Fit | Lab-crafted restorations recreate your natural bite more accurately than direct fillings. |
Strength & Protection | Onlays reinforce weakened teeth and help protect them from further damage or fractures. |
Natural Appearance | Tooth-colored porcelain or ceramic materials blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth for a natural-looking smile. |
Stain Resistance | Porcelain and ceramic inlays and onlays resist staining better than composite resin fillings, helping maintain their appearance over time. |
Material Type | Estimated Cost Per Tooth |
Porcelain/Ceramic Inlay | $500–$1,500 |
Porcelain/Ceramic Onlay | $600–$1,800 |
Composite Resin | Typically less expensive than porcelain |
Gold | Typically more expensive; cost varies by case |
