    • Inlays these go inside of the bowl area created by the tooth’s cusp, the pointy surfaces at the top of teeth. These can be used to improve contact between a top and a bottom tooth.

 

    • Onlays go beyond covering the area surrounded by the cusps and cover part of the sides of teeth as well. They are great at protecting cracked or chipped teeth from incurring further damage.
