The Smarter Fix for a Damaged Tooth

An inlay or onlay is a custom-made restoration that fits precisely into or over a damaged tooth. It’s stronger than a filling but less invasive than a full crown – the ideal middle ground for moderate damage.

Our Promise to You

At Unique Dental in Moula Ali, we understand that visiting a dentist can feel daunting – especially when your tooth is already causing you pain or worry.

FAQs

Will it hurt?

No – we fully numb the area before we begin, so you should feel no pain during the procedure. You may feel some mild sensitivity or tenderness around the tooth for a day or two afterward, but this settles quickly on its own. Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how comfortable the whole process is.

How much does it cost?

The cost of an inlay or onlay depends on the size of the restoration, the tooth involved, and the material used. We believe quality dental care should be accessible, which is why we keep our pricing fair and straightforward. We’d love to give you an accurate quote during a consultation – simply call us or send us a WhatsApp message to book your visit.

What is the difference between an inlay and an onlay?

The difference is simply about location and size. An inlay fits neatly within the cusps (the raised points) of your tooth. An onlay is slightly larger and covers one or more of those cusps. Your dentist will recommend the right option based on exactly where and how much damage exists.

How long will my inlay or onlay last?

With proper care – regular brushing, flossing, and routine check-ups – a well-bonded inlay or onlay can last 10 to 30 years. They are significantly more durable than standard fillings, making them an excellent long-term investment in your tooth’s health.
