About our Wellington, FL Dental Inlays and Onlays
When are Dental Onlays & Inlays Recommended?
Dental inlays and onlays in Palm Beach & Wellington, FL, at the Florida Center for Aesthetic Dentistry are ideal for teeth requiring more support than a traditional filling but not extensive enough for a crown. Circumstances when this form of cosmetic dentistry is best employed include the following:
- Mild to moderate tooth decay
- Cracked or fractured teeth that don’t yet require a crown

What to Expect During the Dental Onlay or Inlay Procedure

The consultation allows Dr. Sadati to determine the best approach to restore your tooth while preserving as much natural structure as possible.
Initial Evaluation
Dr. Sadati performs a thorough examination of the affected tooth and discusses your needs and goals to determine whether an inlay or onlay is the best solution.
Tooth Preparation
The decayed or damaged portion of the tooth is gently removed, and the remaining healthy structure is prepared to receive the restoration.
Impressions
A digital or physical impression of the tooth is taken to create a precise model for the custom inlay or onlay.
Temporary Protection
A temporary restoration may be placed to protect the tooth while your custom inlay or onlay is being fabricated.
Custom Fabrication
The inlay or onlay is meticulously crafted from porcelain or composite to match the color and shape of your natural tooth.
Final Placement
Once the restoration is ready, it is bonded to your tooth, and any necessary adjustments are made to ensure a perfect fit and function.
