Inlays And Onlays in Burbank, CA
Custom Restorations Designed for Protection and Beauty
When a tooth has decay or damage too extensive for a filling—but not enough to require a full crown—precision-crafted inlays and onlays provide a strong, conservative solution. Using advanced digital scanning and high-strength ceramics, these restorations reinforce your natural tooth structure, restore a comfortable bite, and blend seamlessly with your smile.
Your Smile Deserves the Best
If you’re dealing with moderate decay, a failing filling, or a small fracture, an inlay or onlay could be the perfect solution. Schedule a consultation at Coastland Dental and explore your options with our gentle, technology-driven approach.

Dental Inlays or Onlays
Not every tooth in need of repair requires a full crown. Inlays and onlays provide a conservative option when a simple filling isn’t strong enough. Custom-crafted for a precise fit, they preserve healthy tooth structure while reinforcing areas weakened by decay, wear, or small fractures.
Why You Might Need an Inlay or Onlay
- Moderate tooth decay – Ideal when damage is too large for a filling but not severe enough for a crown.
- Chipped or cracked teeth – Restores strength and stability to teeth with minor fractures.
- Worn enamel – Protects teeth affected by grinding or everyday wear.
- Old or failing fillings – Replaces outdated or failing restorations with a strong, natural-looking solution.
Inlays and onlays provide the perfect balance between conservation and durability—helping you maintain your natural smile for years to come.

Inlays And Onlays Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between an inlay and an onlay?
Inlays fill the space between the cusps of a tooth. Onlays cover one or more cusps and can extend to the tooth’s side.
How long do they last?
With proper care, inlays and onlays can last 10 to 30 years or more.
Does the procedure hurt?
Not at all. We use local anesthesia to ensure comfort. Most patients experience little to no discomfort during or after the procedure.
Will my insurance cover the treatment?
Many insurance plans cover inlays and onlays when they are medically necessary. Our team can help you verify your benefits.
How long does the procedure take?
Thanks to our in-office technology, most treatments are completed in one visit.
Will it match my natural tooth color?
Yes. We use tooth-colored ceramic for a result that blends beautifully with your smile.
When can I eat again?
You can eat once the anesthesia wears off—usually within a few hours. We recommend soft foods initially.
How do I care for my inlay/onlay?
Maintain good oral hygiene—brush, floss, and schedule regular checkups—just like with natural teeth.
Are inlays or onlays better than crowns?
They’re less invasive than crowns and help preserve more of your natural tooth structure—making them a great option when applicable.
