These restorations are available from San Diego Dentist Association members and offer you an alternative to a large filling that preserves as much natural tooth as possible. An onlay may be made from many substances, but the most commonly used today are zirconia and porcelain.<\/p>\n<p>Big areas of decay, big areas that have previously been filled and certain kinds of damage to teeth caused by trauma can often be fixed with an onlay. Onlays are a smart solution when a tooth is otherwise healthy and in good condition because most of the original tooth can be preserved. An onlay is similar to an inlay, but inlays never cover the cusp of a tooth as an onlay can.<\/p>\n<p>Like fillings, these restorations don\u2019t last forever, but they can perform well for many years. You and your dentist may decide this is the right option for you if you have a:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fractured or broken tooth<\/li>\n<li>Tooth with a single large area of decay<\/li>\n<li>Broken filling<\/li>\n<li>Large filling that needs to be replaced<\/li>\n<li>Tooth that has had certain kinds of root canal therapy<\/li>\n<li>Tooth that needs to be improved cosmetically.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>What\u2019s Involved In Getting An Onlay?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Usually, getting an onlay restoration requires two dental visits. During the first visit, the dentist prepares the area and takes an impression of the teeth and gums in the area. Then, the impression is sent to a dental lab that custom-designs the onlay for you. While in the office, a temporary restoration is put in place.<\/p>\n<p>When the piece is ready, often in about 2 weeks, you\u2019ll be notified so you can return. The custom onlay is carefully checked and fitted into the space prepared at the previous appointment. The dentist can adjust the restoration at that time if it isn\u2019t yet perfect, making sure you can chew, bite and speak properly.<\/p>\n<p>Taking care of an onlay restoration is about the same as taking care of a natural tooth. Your SDDA dentist can speak with you about oral hygiene to ensure the longest life of the onlay and your other teeth.<\/p>\n<p>To find out if an onlay is the right choice for you, reach out to an SDDA dentist now. You\u2019ll find a caring, friendly professional who\u2019s right for you.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><b class=\"highlight\">Would you like to know if onlay restorations are right for you?
