Porcelain inlays and onlays

Serving patients throughout Bath and surrounding areas

Inlays and onlays can be used to restore teeth when there is not enough of the original tooth to be treated with a filling. They offer a less invasive, more affordable alternative to a crown. The treatment is a highly effective way to strengthen teeth, restore their natural shape and avoid further deterioration.

How inlays and onlays work

Unlike a filling, inlays and onlays are created in a dental laboratory from an impression taken of the tooth. An inlay fills a cavity within the tooth and an onlay is used when the repair needs to include one or more cusps (the points of the tooth), or fully cover the biting surface. They are made from hard wearing materials, most often porcelain and composite resin.

Treatment is carried out over two visits to the Practice. During the first visit areas of decay or existing fillings are removed and your dentist will thoroughly clean the tooth, take an impression and fit a temporary restoration to protect the area.

A specialist dental technician then custom makes an insert that perfectly matches the shape, size and colour of your tooth. Once complete, the inlay or onlay is checked for fit and comfort, and then bonded permanently in place to complete the damaged tooth. When properly maintained they can last for many years.

The benefits of inlays and onlays

Inlays and onlays are an ideal solution as they offer an extensive restoration using minimally invasive techniques while preserving more of the natural tooth. They are more durable than a filling, and because they are created in a laboratory from a precise impression of the tooth they are tailored to fit perfectly. Your tooth will be strong and look entirely natural.

I had the absolute pleasure. Yes pleasure! of an appointment with Aarifa Hussain today. I’m not great with dental treatments at the best of times. I didn’t even feel the local anaesthetic go in. Throughout the whole procedure I was checked on to ensure I felt safe and comfortable. I’ve seen various different dentists at Green Park and Aarifa surpasses them all. The attention to detail is incredible. I even had before and after photos explaining exactly what had been done. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Aarifa to anyone who’s wary of dental treatments. 100% all round service from all the team. Thank you

Usually struggle with discomfort despite the hygienists here always being so kind, gentle and accommodating. Today however they used the new 'Airflow GBT' and wow, I was relaxed the whole appointment! Thank you ever so much Laura and Heather - I shall no longer feel nervous for hygienist appointments!

I was seen swiftly and had everything explained to me. The dentist made sure I was comfortable and gave me time to sort stuff out like a sudden cough.

I worked at Green park dental practice for 16 years as a hygienist and I return every 6 months for examination and always feel welcome and I was helped up and down the stairs as I am having a hip replacement in a few days and using a walking stick and felt grateful

I have always gone to Green Park and will continue to do so where possible. The staff have always been welcoming and friendly and the practice itself is lovely. My dentist Aarifa is incredible and I couldn’t recommend her enough.

Emergency appointment for an abscess with Dr Aarifa Hussain. I was treated with a high level of care, patience and encouragement throughout a painful episode needing antibiotics, and abscess drainage. Dr Hussain took the extra step of following up with an after care email and 6pm phone call to check how I was doing. My subsequent treatment was delivered with the same attention to detail. She is a fantastic dentist. I completely recommend Dr Hussain.

I have been with Green Park for a couple of years now under Sherry Mowla's care, and I have to say I am most pleased. The quality of treatment and advice I have received has surpassed the expectations set by the pricing. As someone who was skeptical at first due to much less recommendable experiences at other practices throughout my years, I can happily say that you will be treated with respect and care here, at least as a patient of Sherry's.

As a regular patient, very satsified.

I’m a new patient and cannot speak highly enough of everyone at the practice. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming, the dental technicians are thoughtful and have discussed each treatment in depth. Thank you all, I’m here to stay!

Dr Hussain was fantastic, I am nervous with certain parts of the procedure - she and her assistant were very good and would happily see again
