When your tooth has been weakened by a large cavity, a previous large filling, or a part of your tooth has fractured off, an onlay might be the best option for the long-term health of your tooth. An onlay is a stronger material that covers a large portion of the tooth. It is an excellent option for restoring your tooth to 90% of its original strength.

Reasons for Porcelain Onlays:

Preserves more of the natural tooth structure

Blends with your tooth for a natural appearance

Strengthens weak teeth

Less likely to get new tooth decay

Less irritation to the gums

Less likely to require a future root canal

An onlay is less stressful to your tooth than a crown and can provide excellent, long-term tooth protection.

I’ve been going to Joplin Family Dental for 6-7 years. The staff are so friendly and helpful. And we love Dr. Kirk. My son is physically challenged and they’ve always really worked to make it the easiest possible. Beth, our hygienist, is super and we love her, too. As a formerly anxious dental patient, I highly recommend Joplin Family Dental.

Always happy to see the folks in the reception desks. They are friendly and always willing to help as needed. They're genuinely interested in the welfare of my family. Lisa is my hygienist. She understands my particular needs and sees to it that they are met. I feel totally relaxed having Lisa delve around in my mouth. My experience with others within the practice are equally positive.

Dr. Paustian, Susan, and Becky have always done such a great job taking care of my teeth and making sure the procedure has been pain-free.

Where to start, I’ve been a patient here for some time and while all the staff from the receptionist to my hygienist, Beth is great. Devon is my favorite. She’s very personal and caring and so knowledgeable I’m what she does. Definitely, in my opinion what keeps me coming back.
