Dentist Long Beach 9 Inlays & Onlays

What Are Inlays and Onlays

Dental inlays and onlays are dental products made of gold, composite resin, or porcelain that are used as a means of treating certain types of decay or tooth damage. The material is bonded to the damaged areas of the tooth to protect the natural tooth from further degradation. Inlays are restricted to the tooth’s cusp, while onlays cover the cusp and the chewing surface. In some ways, they are similar to dental fillings, but they are useful for more extensive restoration than a typical filling.

Key Benefits of Inlays and Onlays

  • Provides additional strength and support for your affected tooth
  • Can last longer than fillings with proper care
  • Blends well with your natural tooth color and shade
  • Can be completed in just one appointment

What’s the Process for Getting Inlays and Onlays

First, any damaged or decaying areas of your tooth are removed to prepare for the inlay/onlay. Next, an impression of the tooth is taken and sent to the lab. Once finished, the inlay/onlay is designed and crafted out of a block of porcelain. Finally, if the inlay/onlay is a good fit and no adjustments are needed, it is bonded to the tooth and cleaned up.

The entire process is well tolerated, and we use local numbing to ensure that our patients have a fully comfortable experience. We take every measure to provide a positive and pleasant experience in a comfortable, friendly environment so you can receive stress-free dental care.

Are Inlays and Onlays the Right Solution for Me?

Inlays and onlays are ideal for those who have mild to moderate decay or damage, as they provide additional strength and support to the affected tooth. They also offer a more natural look, making them a great choice for those looking to maintain their smile’s aesthetic. Even if you have more significant decay or damage to your teeth, we have other restorative solutions that might be what you need. When you come into our office for an appointment, our dental team can discuss all your options and find the right one from you.

How Long Do They Last?

Inlays and onlays can last for many years with proper care, healthy dental hygiene habits, and regular visits to the dentist. Proper oral hygiene is essential in maintaining a healthy smile, as any bacteria or decay on the tooth can affect the longevity of your inlay/onlay. Make sure to brush and floss regularly, avoid sugary snacks, and visit your dentist at least twice a year. By staying on top of your oral health on the hole, you can get the most out of this dental treatment and see your results last for years.

I recently visited Dr. Jesmine Boghawala’s long beach dental office for Invisalign, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. From start to finish, my experience was exceptional, and I am excited to share my positive feedback.

First and foremost, Dr. Jesmine Boghawala’s is a fantastic dentist. Her expertise and experience were evident throughout the entire procedure. She took the time to explain each step of the Invisalign process, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed. Her gentle approach and attention to detail made the treatment a breeze. I truly appreciate her professionalism and commitment to patient care.

Furthermore, the entire team at the office was friendly and welcoming. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality. The employees demonstrated a deep understanding of customer service, making me feel valued and at ease. Their professionalism and dedication to creating a positive atmosphere were evident throughout my visit.

The office itself is brand new, and it is immaculate. The cleanliness and organization of the facility exceeded my expectations.

One of the aspects I truly appreciated about this dental office was the ample parking available.

I discovered her office through my CPA, whose office is located next door. I feel fortunate to have found such an excellent dentist right in my neighborhood. Given my positive experience, I will certainly be returning for any future dental needs.

Dr. Jesmine and Team have always been a breathe of fresh air when it comes to Dentistry customer service and care. I live in Long Beach but I started at their new Cerritos location. The location is beautiful and well kept and their staff were always welcoming, warm and hospitable. They were always very helpful when explaining services needed, insurance questions and best short term and long term options for me personally. As soon as I heard about their Long Beach location opening, I jump on the opportunity to schedule appointments there too and as expected, the location is clean, aesthetic and staff is equally as welcoming as Cerritos. From one woman owned small business owner to another, they know what matters to customers and they are implementing it at the highest level. I’ll be referring local friends and family to them for sure!
