If you have slight tooth decay an inlay is an excellent option for restoration. For moderate decay, an onlay is recommended. The difference is an inlay covers a small decay area while an onlay covers more of your chewing surface, known as your cusps. Dentist Evelyn Kidonakis will remove and clean the decayed area, make an image and then create the porcelain inlay/onlay that is affixed to the prepared surface of your tooth.

The natural, tooth-colored porcelain protects your teeth from fracturing as well as helps in the prevention of tooth decay. Your smile will be healthy as well as beautiful!

A crown is a tooth-like covering placed over an existing tooth that has structural damage or severe decay. Crowns serve many functions. It may be used to protect the structure of a tooth that is broken or fractured, to support the tooth when it is clear that sufficient tooth structure is insufficient to place a filling, to restore or improve the appearance of your natural tooth and also to prevent bone loss, decay, periodontal disease and shifting of teeth if just one tooth is missing. Glenview residents can trust dentist Evelyn Kidonakis to provide the latest in advanced and aesthetic dentistry in a comfortable and friendly office.
