Frequently Asked Questions for Inlay

An inlay is a type of dental restoration that is used to repair a decayed or damaged tooth. It is similar to a filling, but it is custom-made in a dental lab and is typically made from a durable material such as porcelain or composite resin. Inlays are designed to fit precisely into the prepared cavity and are bonded to the tooth using a strong dental adhesive.

Inlay treatment is typically used to repair moderate to large cavities in the teeth. It can also be used to restore teeth that are cracked, broken, or have other types of damage. Inlays are often preferred over traditional fillings because they are more durable and long-lasting.

An inlay treatment can last for many years, with proper care and maintenance. The lifespan of an inlay can vary depending on the material used, the location of the restoration, and the patient’s oral hygiene habits. Porcelain inlays tend to last longer than composite resin inlays, but both materials can provide excellent results.

The process for getting an inlay typically involves two or more dental appointments. During the first appointment, the dentist will prepare the tooth by removing any decayed or damaged material and shaping the cavity to fit the inlay. They will then take impressions of the prepared tooth and send them to a dental lab where the inlay will be custom-made. At a follow-up appointment, the dentist will bond the inlay to the tooth using a special dental adhesive.
