CEREC onlays take the place of extensive amalgam or composite fillings to create a smooth, tooth-colored replacement of tooth material lost to cavities. The CEREC onlay provides a strong, aesthetic, long-lasting restoration. Compared to composite onlays, CEREC’s enable-like material looks and feels more like your real teeth and helps restore your tooth to its original strength. The CEREC onlay has superior aesthetics to PFM (porcelain fused to metal) crowns. Because it is metal free, it has a more natural look and feel and the CEREC onlay can help preserve healthy, natural tooth structure. And with any CEREC restoration, your onlay can all be taken care of in one visit. You can avoid the impression material, temporary and return appointment associated with lab-created onlays.
