Restore and Protect Your Smile with Custom Dental Onlays in Mukilteo
When a tooth is too damaged for a filling but doesn’t need a full crown, a dental onlay offers the ideal solution. At Harbour Pointe Dental Arts, we use custom-crafted onlays to restore the strength and appearance of your tooth while preserving as much natural structure as possible. It’s a conservative yet durable option for long-lasting dental health.
What Is a Dental Onlay?
A dental onlay is a custom-made restoration that covers the chewing surface of a tooth—extending over one or more of the tooth’s cusps (points). It’s often referred to as a “partial crown” and is used when decay or damage is too extensive for a filling but doesn’t require full coverage like a traditional crown.
Onlays are typically made from high-quality porcelain or composite material, designed to blend naturally with your surrounding teeth.
