FAQs

Onlays are termed as conservative restorations. Although they provide equivalent strength to the underlying tooth, they do not require excessive tooth reduction as required by a crown.

Tooth preparation for inlays and onlays is difiicult and more time-consuming. Therefore, they are also more expensive than a filling and equally expensive as a crown. As the margins are longer than crown and if minor marginal misfits exist it lead to more plaque accumulation. Hence they are always preferred to be given in patients with meticulous oral hygiene habits.
