01
Overview
An inlay or onlay should disappear into the tooth around it. We copy cusp form and fissure pattern from the adjacent teeth and keep the margins fine enough to finish cleanly at the fit appointment.
Lithium disilicate is our usual choice. Zirconia is available where you prescribe it.
02
Process
Design. The restoration is designed inside the preparation with contacts set to the neighbours.
Make. It is pressed or milled, then fitted to the die under magnification.
Finish. Fissures are stained lightly and the surface glazed.
Check. Margins and contacts are checked on the model.
