Inlays and Onlays Non-Invasive Repair
Sometimes tooth decay causes too much damage for repair with ordinary fillings but doesn’t require treatment with a full crown. When that’s the case, we often turn to inlays and onlays – the conservative alternative to dental crowns.

Virtually impossible to spot
Treatment with inlays and onlays involves removing a tiny part of the affected tooth and producing a restoration to fit the cavity exactly.
Once bonded in place, the inlay or onlay repairs the biting surface. The hard-wearing tooth-coloured composite makes inlays and onlays virtually impossible to spot. They are especially useful for repairing back teeth like molars and premolars.

Inlays vs Onlays
Inlays and onlays repair damage and protect from infection while preserving as much of the natural tooth as possible.
Generally, we’ll use an inlay to replace the central chewing surface of a back tooth. However, If the decayed area has affected a cusp (the raised edges of your tooth), we’ll use an onlay to repair the damage.
Put simply, an onlay covers the tooth’s cusp while an inlay only fills the central area between the cusps.
At Changing Faces®, we offer a choice of composite or porcelain, both selected for their hard-wearing properties and likeness to natural tooth enamel. Treatment is quick and less expensive than a full crown.

The results speak for themselves
I’ve recently completed Invisalign with Keely…. After just 6 months all my front teeth are completely straight, I would highly recommend the treatment, especially with Keely. The results speak for themselves.
Process has been seamless
7 months into my Invisalign journey and I couldn’t recommend Keely and the team anymore. Process has been seamless throughout, 10/10. I couldn’t be happier with my teeth so far and we’re just over half way through!
Thankyou to the lovely ladies at changing faces 😃
Blown away
December 2022 I made the best desigion to go a head with same day teeth from changing faces . I want to say from preparation before treatment to treatment day and after care Iv be blown away…
I finally have the confidence to smile!
I went down the Invisalign route finishing off with some bonding with Dr Suresh Chohan. I had a very professional experience and the results were amazing. I finally have the confidence to smile! I will be recommending Changing Faces to my friends and family.

Perfect
Today I have received my new denture and I’m thrilled with it. After many years of poorly fitting NHS dentures and after reading the reviews about Changing Faces I decided to attend for a consultation. From the moment I met Marc and his lovely team I just knew that my new bespoke denture would be perfect and it is.
