Long-lasting and natural solutions with minimal intervention for damaged or decayed teeth
Inlay, onlay, and overlay applications are aesthetic solutions aimed at repairing decayed or damaged areas in teeth while preserving them. These methods provide safe and permanent repair by preserving the natural structure of the tooth as much as possible. At Avrupa Sağlık Oral and Dental Health Clinic, we manage the process not only as an aesthetic application but also with a holistic approach that protects dental health.
For each patient, the tooth structure and the extent of decay or damage are meticulously evaluated. The most suitable inlay, onlay, or overlay method is selected through clinical and digital measurements and applied step-by-step. Safety, comfort, and long-term functional results are prioritized during the procedure, and the patient is informed at every step.
Inlay, onlay, and overlay procedures are planned individually for each patient, and the application process is tailored to their specific needs.
Inlay and onlay applications protect the health and aesthetics of the tooth.
Damaged or decayed tooth areas are restored with minimal intervention. These methods preserve the tooth's natural structure while providing long-term function and supporting aesthetic harmony.

Inlays and onlays are safe and effective dental procedures.
Methods using composite or porcelain materials preserve the natural structure of the tooth and provide long-term function. During the procedure, expert dentists meticulously control every step, prioritizing patient comfort. Each patient's tooth structure and the extent of the damage are evaluated in detail, and the appropriate material and technique are determined. In this way, a safe result is achieved in terms of both aesthetics and function.

In professional clinical applications, materials adapt to the natural structure of the tooth and maintain aesthetic integrity in the long term. However, slight changes may occur in some cases due to chewing habits, oral hygiene, and factors that cause discoloration.
Regular check-ups and dentist recommendations ensure that aesthetic and functional results are maintained. This provides a long-lasting solution in terms of both appearance and health.
Online ConsultationA Porcelain Filling is an indirect restoration method aimed at repairing tooth tissue loss using aesthetic and durable ceramic materials. Unlike traditional composite fillings, these restorations are prepared in a laboratory environment, produced based on personalized measurements, and then bonded to the tooth. Porcelain Fillings are one of the preferred options, especially for extensive decay or fractured teeth.
In aesthetic dentistry, Porcelain Filling applications aim to provide long-term restoration while preserving natural tooth tissue as much as possible. Thanks to their light transmittance and color harmony, an appearance very close to the natural tooth can be achieved. This feature provides advantages in terms of both function and aesthetics, particularly for the back teeth.
Porcelain Fillings are applied in cases where traditional fillings may be insufficient for teeth with major structural loss. Instead of covering the entire tooth, it aims to restore only the damaged part. In this regard, it offers a protective approach.
Porcelain Fillings can be planned for situations such as wide cavities, replacement of old fillings, or fractured tooth corners. Due to their metal-free and biocompatible structure, results harmonious with the gum tissue are targeted. However, suitability for each patient requires a detailed clinical analysis.
Porcelain Filling applications are divided into three different categories depending on the extent of the damage: inlay, onlay, and overlay restorations. These restorations are named according to which part of the tooth is being repaired.
An inlay restoration fills the hollow part on the chewing surface of the tooth and does not include the tooth cusps. An onlay restoration involves one or more cusps. An overlay, on the other hand, can cover a larger portion of the chewing surface. This systematic approach provides solutions based on tissue loss during Porcelain Filling planning.
The difference between inlay, onlay, and overlay relates to how much of the tooth the restoration covers. The details below summarize the primary differences:
These differences allow Porcelain Filling designs to be planned specifically for the individual. The goal is to achieve maximum durability while avoiding unnecessary tooth reduction.
Porcelain Fillings can offer several advantages compared to traditional composite fillings. Ceramic materials possess high compressive strength. Additionally, color stability can be higher in the long run.
While composite fillings can change color over time, Porcelain Filling surfaces have a lower tendency to stain. However, there may be differences in terms of cost and procedure time. The advantages of both methods should be evaluated according to clinical needs.
The longevity of a Porcelain Filling application depends on regular oral care. Daily brushing and flossing help protect the edges of the restoration.
Sensitivity may be observed in the first few days following a Porcelain Filling application. This is usually temporary. Avoiding very hard and sticky foods can support the adaptation process.
Additionally, regular check-ups are important for monitoring the fit of the restoration. With proper care, Porcelain Filling restorations can function for many years. However, the lifespan may vary depending on personal habits and oral hygiene.
Porcelain Filling is a modern restorative approach aimed at preserving tooth tissue to the maximum extent. Thanks to the inlay, onlay, and overlay systems, it offers solutions appropriate to the extent of the damage.
It can provide advantages in terms of aesthetics and durability compared to traditional fillings. However, every clinical situation must be evaluated separately. With correct planning and regular maintenance, Porcelain Fillings stand out as a functional and natural-looking solution.
