Restore Your Smile With Inlays and Onlays at Dentiland in Tijuana, Mexico
Inlays and onlays are the ideal solutions when your teeth have been damaged or decayed beyond repair with a filling but not to a degree that requires a crown. Dentiland, in Tijuana, MX, offers these advanced restorative procedures to strengthen and repair your teeth while maintaining their natural appearance.
Inlays and onlays are crafted with precision and care to restore functionality and enhance the aesthetics of your smile. Find out why inlays and onlays are popular options for patients looking for a minimally invasive, long-lasting alternative to crowns.
What Are Inlays and Onlays?
Inlays and onlays are custom-made dental restorations that repair damaged or decayed teeth. They are made of durable materials such as porcelain, composite resin, or gold and are bonded to the tooth securely for a seamless fit.
- Inlays fill the space between the cusps on the chewing surface.
- Onlays cover a larger area, such as the entire tooth or one or more cusps.
Both options are conservative approaches to restoring the tooth structure while maintaining its strength and integrity.
Benefits of Inlays and Onlays
Inlays and onlays have several benefits, including:
1. A Natural Appearance
Inlays and Onlays are designed to match your natural tooth color and texture, making them almost invisible.
2. Strength and Durability
They are made from high-quality materials and can last many years if properly cared for.
3. Conservative Treatment
Inlays and onlays are designed to preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible, in contrast to crowns, which remove a significant amount of tooth structure.
4. Precision Fit
These restorations, made using advanced dental technology, fit perfectly and reduce the risk of decay or damage in the future.

5. Improved Oral Health
Inlays and onlays seal the area to prevent further decay. They also help to maintain your overall dental health.
When Are Inlays and Onlays Recommended?
Patients with:
- Moderate tooth decay, which cannot be fixed with a filling.
- Broken or cracked teeth that need reinforcement.
- Old or failing fillings that need to be replaced.
- Damage to the chewing surfaces on molars or premolars.
- Preference for an aesthetic and conservative solution to the appearance of their smile.
