Tooth-Colored Onlays Can Be Bonded to the Tooth

The American College of Prosthodontists explains that making an onlay from ceramic or porcelain allows it to be bonded to the tooth, and that this bonding process may improve the strength of the tooth and help seal the onlay to it. It adds that more and more patients request tooth-colored onlays instead of gold. This supports the points above about a durable, natural-looking restoration.

“Making the onlay of ceramic/porcelain allows the restoration to be bonded to the tooth.”
