Inlays & Onlays in Pompano Beach, FL
What Do Inlays & Onlays Involve?

Inlays and onlays are custom restorations used when a tooth has damage that is too extensive for a filling but does not require a full crown. An inlay fits within the grooves of the tooth, while an onlay extends over one or more cusps to provide additional coverage and support.
At Smile Dental Care, inlays and onlays are carefully planned and performed by Dr. Yunet Chao and Dr. Thaylon Sotomayor, two general dentists who work closely together throughout diagnosis, treatment planning, and restoration. Advanced diagnostics and precise impressions are used to ensure a secure fit and natural appearance.
This collaborative approach allows patients to receive care from a trusted general dentist in Pompano Beach, FL, with consistency and confidence at every step.
