Porcelain Onlays in Brisbane
Seamless, Durable Solutions for Damaged Teeth
At Brisbane Smile Boutique, our aesthetic dentist Dr Leila Haywood offers expert care in the placement of porcelain onlays. These custom-made restorations are designed to fit over and protect damaged or weakened teeth, restoring strength and aesthetics with seamless integration.
Porcelain onlays are ideal for teeth that have large cavities but do not require a full crown. They preserve more of the natural tooth while delivering durable, beautiful results that match the natural colour and shape of your teeth.
Placement Process
- Initial Consultation: Dr Leila Haywood assesses the tooth using advanced diagnostics like digital X-rays and 3D scanning.
- Tooth Preparation: The damaged portion is removed and the tooth is shaped under local anaesthesia.
- Intraoral Scanning: A precise 3D digital scan is used to ensure a custom fit.
- Temporary Onlay: A temporary restoration may be placed to maintain comfort and aesthetics while the final onlay is crafted.
- Fitting & Bonding: The final porcelain onlay is cemented and polished for a seamless and lasting finish.
Our onlays are crafted by master ceramists in Australia and incorporate the latest digital technologies to ensure the highest level of fit, aesthetics and function.
