Restorative Dental Care by Your Dentist in Chicago
When a cavity forms on a tooth, you need restorative dental care. Depending on the severity of the damage and the location on the tooth, there are two options to bring that tooth back to the proper level of dental health.
Inlays and onlays are custom manufactured and bonded to the damaged area to restore the shape and function of the tooth. Inlays are applied to the inside surface of the damaged tooth, while onlays are bonded to the outside of the tooth surface and are often a good alternative to a full crown.
