Classified between a dental filling and a crown, a dental inlay or onlay can restore a damaged or decayed tooth. Used on molars and pre-molars, a dental inlay covers the indented center of a tooth while an onlay covers the tooth's rounded, upper edges. Like dental fillings and crowns, inlays and onlays can be made from a variety of materials — composite resin, metal, and porcelain.

An onlay or inlay is a good choice when you've got a damaged tooth or a large cavity that is too big to get filled, but does not require the full coverage of a crown.
