Onlays and Crowns
It is now possible to use tooth-colored materials to
restore teeth instead of silver fillings that were once used. These newer
composite and porcelain materials are similar to natural tooth enamel, are wear
resistant, and restore teeth to their original appearance. Porcelain onlays and
crown not only bond to the tooth structure strengthening the teeth and making
them more resistant to fracture, but also cosmetically blend into the existing
tooth enamel. Usually treatment is more conservative because less tooth
structure needs to be removed.
