Inlays and onlays
Like fillings, inlays and onlays are used to fill a cavity but both play different roles in reinforcing a tooth weakened as a result of damage or decay. It falls under the umbrella of restorative dentistry, repairing the large chewing surface of a back tooth. A composite onlay is used when an inlay is not substantial enough and will repair the centre of a tooth’s chewing surface.
What happens during treatment for inlays and onlays?
We will take impressions of the tooth that needs treatment and send it off for the inlay to be custom-created. It will be made from either porcelain or resin, both of which are tooth-coloured. Your dentist will remove the decayed matter and, when the restoration has arrived back at the practice, will invite you back to have the composite fitted.
Why have an onlay or inlay to restore your tooth?
- It offers support when a filling isn’t strong enough.
- They protect teeth from further damage.
- Simple and minimally invasive procedure.
- Composite onlays and inlays are aesthetically pleasing, created to match your tooth shade, so you can feel confident about your smile.

If you’re looking for the perfect dentist, look no further - Dr Latha is IT! She is kind, welcoming, professional - she explains everything so clearly, and is really gentle and patient. Her work is thorough and meticulous. And to top it all off, her clinic is so lovely it feels like a spa day. I actually look forward to going to the dentist now. I could not recommend her and RENU more highly! Run don’t walk!

What a lovely experience! Dr Latha is so caring and is clearly experienced with a real knowledge of both teeth and the facial structure. She identified teeth grinding and a jaw click that I didn’t even know I had. Such a thorough check up and in a really relaxing environment. Highly recommend.

I’ve never had as thorough of a dental health assessment as I experienced at this dental clinic. Coming from the US where I’ve never done a full 360• X-ray of my whole mouth, pictures taken of every angle of my mouth, such detailed analysis of my teeth by the wonderful dentist was a different and eye opening experience for me! The dentist, Dr Latha then took her time and patiently explained all the different issues she saw in my mouth and how to continue to care for my teeth. I wish I lived in London so I could continue seeing her.. It was a great experience for me! Best dentist in Notting Hill!

This must have been one of the best dentist visits I have ever had. Dr. Latha is very professional, friendly and capable. The clinic itself is highly technological and designed with the patient in mind (I can watch nature and landscapes on a screen on the ceiling while being treated, rather than staring into a bright light like in other dentist clinics? wow!). The treatment received also resolved my issue. Will be back.

Chipped half my tooth off and Dr. Latha shuffled her schedule around and managed to fit me in within 30 mins of me contacting them! Exceptional service and she did an incredible job. Good as new. Thank you 🙂
