Inlay filling is one of the aesthetic dental treatment methods and is a preferred filling application in tooth loss. If there is not enough tissue in the teeth to be filled, this filling method is preferred to cover the teeth. It is often confused with the Onlay filling method. Although both have similarities, they differ from each other in application and effects. Choice of filling method can be decided after a detailed examination.
What is Inlay Filling?
Let us start with clarifying what inlay filling is and why it is applied. It is a filling procedure applied to fill the cavity formed after cleaning the decays. The applicability of this procedure requires that the teeth are not damaged to a degree that prevents filling. The material used is produced from full ceramic materials and is tailor-made. In both inlay and onlay fillings, the lifespan of the fillings varies according to the condition of the teeth and the importance given by individuals to oral and dental care. After filling procedures, patients should generally be careful and pay attention to oral hygiene.
What is the Difference of Inlay Filling?
There are some differences between Inlay filling and Onlay filling. Basically, both are applied for the same purpose and are extremely useful. This filling type differs from all filling types in some aspects. The most important difference of this dental filling application is as follows:
- This type of filling is applied when the cusps of the tooth have not decayed. The cavities formed after cleaning the decays are filled with suitable materials.
- Inlay filling is slightly more cost-effective than other filling materials.
- It is produced in accordance with the natural tooth colour.
- It is produced to be placed in the inner part of the tooth.
How Is It Done?
As in standard filling procedures, the decays in the tooth must first be cleaned. For this purpose, the area is firstly anaesthetised. Then the decay is cleaned and the filling material is applied to the cavity. During inlay filling procedure, the tooth is digitally modelled. Then, the filling material is created accordingly. The prepared filling model is placed on the tooth and the procedure is successfully completed. Please consult our specialists at Antalya Smile Designs.
