Small to medium sized cavities can generally be repaired with tooth coloured composite resin, but if you have a larger cavity in a back tooth, we may suggest you have an inlay or onlay. These are custom-made restorations fabricated from either porcelain or gold and which are more able to withstand the pressures created when you chew food.
Dental Inlay & Onlay Sunnybank

What Is the Difference between an Inlay and an Onlay?

An inlay is slightly smaller than an onlay, replacing the central part of a back tooth. An onlay can repair this central area as well as one or more of the tooth cusps which are the raised points on the edges closest to your cheek and tongue.
