It is similar to getting a crown placed just with less of the natural tooth removed. When you come in your gum will be numbed and a trained professional will reshape the tooth by removing any decay. We will then make an impression of the tooth that will be used to make a perfectly fitting onlay/inlay.
At the next visit, we will attach the permanent onlay/inlay and your tooth will be as good as new! To help it last, brush and floss your teeth regularly.
