Restore Your Teeth With Inlays/ Onlays in Cancun
Are your teeth too damaged to get a dental filling, but
not so damaged to have a full dental crown? In this
case, getting a dental inlay or a dental onlay is ideal.
Here at Dental Work Mexico, we can restore your teeth with inlays/onlays in one trip, divided into two appointments. This is because we must prepare your teeth and fabricate the partial crowns in-house.
By following a two-appointment plan, we can deliver a
more precise restoration and ensure you long-lasting
and aesthetic results. Your inlays/onlays will be done in
a few days.

The Differences Between Dental Onlay and Inlay
Dental inlays and onlays, also known as partial crowns or indirect fillings, are the same procedure, only being
different in the extent of tooth structure they restore. The amount of decay or existing filling being replaced will
determine the shape and type of the restoration.
Dental Inlay
Inlays work as a regular filling by going inside the tooth to restore deep cavities.
Dental inlays are excellent to replace amalgam fillings
or restore moderately decayed teeth due to untreated
cavities. These are indicated when the damage only
covers one cusp of the tooth.
Dental Onlay
Onlays work as a partial crown by covering part of the
tooth´s cusps and sides.
Dental onlays are appropriate to restore a tooth, almost
entirely, when the decay covers most of the tooth´s
surface and the sides. This helps to salvage the tooth
and prevent root canal therapy.
Do You Want to Know if You Can
Have an Inlay/Onlay?
How Can Dental Inlays & Onlays Help You?
Teeth inlays and onlays are as good as regular dental
crowns because they are fabricated with the same
materials and are almost as durable, aesthetic, and
resistant. However, they are commonly used to restore
premolars and molars only.
By having a restoration with inlays or onlays we can
help you to solve several dental issues, and prevent
more complex procedures. Dental Inlays and onlays
can be a useful restoration to:
Replace failed dental fillings
Repair deep tooth cracks
Restore a decayed tooth
Avoid further tooth damage
Prevent a root canal therapy
Recover a tooth functionality
Improve a tooth´s esthetics

Types of Inlay/Onlay Restorations Milled In-House with CAD/CAM
At Dental Work Mexico, we have an in-house dental lab in which we can fabricate your dental restorations with
CAD/CAM technology, shortly after the first appointment.
Porcelain Inlays/Onlays
The Best for Natural Aesthetics
Porcelain inlays or onlays are excellent to achieve the
most accurate aesthetics. We recommend porcelain for
premolars, mostly. Besides looking great, porcelain is
also very resistant.
Zirconia Inlays/ Onlays
Highly Durable and Stainless
Zirconia inlays or onlays have the most resistance out
of all ceramic materials. These are ideal for molars, as
zirconia can withstand more stress due to chewing. It
also has stainless properties.
Yellow Gold Inlays/Onlays
The Most Resistant Restoration
With extremely high strength, toughness, durability,
and resistance to wear, yellow gold inlays or onlays are
the most long-lasting solution. However, gold
restorations lack natural aesthetics.
Do You Have Amalgam Fillings?
Dental Inlays/Onlays vs Dental CrownsWhich is The Best For Me?
Both full dental crowns and partial crowns are excellent treatments to restore a tooth´s aesthetics and
functionality, but inlays and onlays are recommended only in specific situations. Here´s a brief comparison
between both restorative dental treatments:
Dental Inlays/Onlays
Preserves more tooth structure
Less tooth prep needed
Good resistance overall
Minimally invasive
Only used in back teeth
VS
Dental Crowns
Requires more tooth shaving
Excellent resistance
Less prone to failure
Can work with implants
Can restore any teeth
When is a Dental Crown Necessary?
Contrary to onlays and inlays, dental crowns are used
when a tooth is gone or severely damaged due to wear
down, trauma, or diseases.
It can happen that some of your teeth could use inlays/
onlays, whereas others need a full crown. You can learn
all about getting your dental crowns at Dental Work
Mexico
How Are Inlays and Onlays Made?
Partial Crowns Treatment Process
TOOTH PREP & IMPRESSIONS
To prepare your teeth properly,
the dentist will remove any
decay or existing filling. Then
he will
re-shape the remaining cavity,
so the dentist can take an
impression with ease and place
your temporary inlays/onlays.
IN-HOUSE LAB FABRICATION
After the first appointment,
your teeth impressions will be
sent to our dental technicians
for them to fabricate your inlay
or onlay with CAD/CAM. This
process can take a single day or
a couple, depending on how
many you need.
FINAL RESTORATION PLACEMENT
On your final appointment, the
dentist will remove the
temporary restorations to place
and cement the final dental
onlays or inlays. If necessary,
the dentist can make
adjustments to ensure
everything works.
