Cosmetic Dentists Liverpool Offer Inlays and Onlays

By Marty Don


Teeth are normally extracted when they have rotted extensively. However, if they can still be restored, dental restorative treatments are used to keep them intact without causing harm to the adjacent dental structures. One of the dental restorations which are being practiced by cosmetic dentists Liverpool is the installation of inlays and onlays.

Rather than filling a damaged or cavity-ridden tooth, cosmetic dentists Liverpool offer the service of inlays and onlays either for vanity's sake or for medical reason. As their names might imply, an inlay is bonded with the inner portion of the tooth, while an onlay covers the whole upper surface. As opposed to crowns that are being placed over the whole tooth, these dental treatments preserve the portions of the tooth which are still healthy. They are normally made from a composite resin, porcelain and even sometimes gold. They are made of strong tooth colored material and they provide a much more natural looking filling than the metal ones.

Benefits

Dental inlays and onlays offer more comfort and natural feel, maintain the appearance of the tooth, are not likely to discolor over time, and allow for normal teeth cleaning. When it comes to correcting a tooth, they offer a seamless transition from the look, feel, and maintenance in which you have become accustomed to. While these treatments are usually considered as being used only on the upper surface of the tooth, they can work just as well between the teeth, right down to the gum line. This gives protection against further bacterial damage and fills those gaps between teeth without fear of unpleasant discoloration in the future.

Cosmetic dentists Liverpool could suggest these solutions for whitening the teeth and restoring dental damage. A pre-installation check-up is compulsory for patients. The Liverpool cosmetic dentists would inspect the tooth which is supposed to be repaired. After taking measurements, the dentist would craft the needed restoratives to the exact specifications of the patient. The inlay or onlay must fit perfectly; otherwise, it would be obvious on the tooth.
