When Doctor Deborah McNeil-Amorteguy of Deborah McNeil-Amorteguy DDS in San Luis Obispo repairs a tooth that has decay or damage, the procedure chosen often depends on the location of the problem. We’re talking tooth-specific locale here.
If there is a chip, crack, or decay on the biting surface of a tooth, an onlay or inlay is often created to restore the tooth.
Inlays and onlays are a type of tooth restoration used successfully at Deborah McNeil-Amorteguy DDS. They are usually bigger than a conventional filling yet smaller than a complete crown. An inlay is used to fill an area inside the cusp tips or bumps of a tooth. An onlay covers an area that includes more than one cusp.
At Deborah McNeil-Amorteguy DDS, the inlays and onlays we place for our patients are indistinguishable from their natural teeth. Doctor Deborah McNeil-Amorteguy has a finely honed eye for detail and complete mastery of dental aesthetics to customize the restoration and create an exact match.
Deborah McNeil-Amorteguy DDS inlays and onlays:
- Are stain resistant
- Do not bring about tooth sensitivity
- Are beautifully matched to natural teeth
- Strengthen the tooth and protect against further decay or damage
