Dental Inlay & Onlays By Powell and Knoxville Dentists Dr. Edwin Guion & Dr. Todd Klein - Cosmetic Dentistry, Family Dentist in Tennessee (TN)

Inlays and Onlays

Powell Dentists Dr. Edwin Guion and Dr. Todd Klein feel that dental Inlays/Onlays are a wonderful way to repair, protect and beautify your teeth and smile. Our patients love having a more aesthetically pleasing and healthy alternative to the old metal or amalgam fillings used in the past.

Dental Inlay/Onlays are used to restore tooth surface damaged by decay. They can be molded by the doctor using composite resin materials or can be manufactured out of porcelain to fit perfectly into the prepared area. Because these restorations are made from tooth colored materials they are impossible to tell from your natural teeth; so you can keep the beauty of your smile while restoring a healthy and strong tooth structure.

The Advantages of Using Dental Inlay/Onlays

A real advantage of Inlays/Onlays over the old metal/amalgam fillings is that these restorations are chemically bonded to the surface of the tooth, giving them a permanent seal against bacteria. Thereby protecting your tooth from any further damage.

Inlays/Onlays also allow us to be more conservative when removing any decay or damaged tooth surface; removing only what is necessary and leaving behind more of your precious, healthy tooth surface. Because of these advantages, our patients are now replacing their old metal/amalgam fillings with these more beautiful and enduring fillings (They can last up to 30 years!). This is an easy, painless procedure that can be accomplished in only 1 or 2 visits.

Inlays/Onlays are the treatment of choice to both protect your teeth and beautify your smile. Please call a member of our team for a complimentary consultation.
