Inlays & Onlays
An Inlay/Onlay is a small restoration usually made of a very strong ceramic. When a large portion of a natural tooth is lost, the traditional method to replace the lost tooth structure is with a crown that covers the entire tooth in it’s entirety. However, with modern adhesive dentistry, we are able to manufacture much smaller restorations called inlays/onlays, and are thereby able to preserve much more of your tooth structure.
Another great advantage of these wonderful restorations – they are usually less expensive than the cost of a crown. Reach out to our team to find out what the cost of an inlay or onlay is and make an appointment to get your teeth back to shape in no time!
INLAY VS ONLAY – What’s the difference?
An onlay covers one or more “cusps” of your teeth – a cusp is the projection on teeth that help you chew your food. An inlay does not replace any cusps.
Steps to that perfect restoration
Step 1
Make an appointment to meet one of the experts at Acharya Dental for a consultation. An inlay or onlay will be planned for you at this stage.
Step 2
After the tooth is prepared to receive the restoration, a measurement is taken either digitally with a scanner or with a traditional impression (mould).
Step 3
The inlay or onlay will be delivered and adjusted to feel as natural as any other tooth in your mouth.

FAKE RATING ALERT!!! PAID REVIEWS POSTEDIf your purportedly legitimate organization can publish false reviews, it's only fair to counterbalance with a review exposing them as fake. Anyone familiar with social media marketing can easily discern the tactics employed by your so-called legitimate organization.
I would like to thank Dr.mahesh for the excellent work ..thank you Doctor for your patience and helpfulness.. appreciate it.. wish you and Acharya Dental all the best.
Extremely happy to share my experience at Dr Acharya s clinic. After a major mishap with my front 12 teeth in Apollo Dental Kotturpuram where I was wrongly adviced and they did root canal and crown for all my 12 teeth which was not a necessity. The crowns were a big mismatch and after struggling for 2 months I went for a second opinion to Dr Acharya s clinic. Dr Acharya herself took charge and not only gave me assurance of the functionality of the teeth but also made sure that aesthetically too they were a right fit. After 3 months I am feeling normal and am able to eat and chew and talk properly. My heartfelt thanks to Dr Acharya and her team for their efforts to make sure and rework on a shoddy job. Throughout the procedure she was patiently clearing my doubts and assured me continuously that my teeth will be as perfect as possible. Today I feel it’s better than perfect and am very happy.
To Dr Varun Acharya,I would like to express my gratitude for the outstanding dental care my husband and I have received from you. Your professionalism, expertise, and dedication to ensuring our comfort and well-being during each visit have made a significant difference in our dental health.I appreciate that you took your time to explain the procedures in detail and make us feel reassured.Thank you once again for your work and for giving us a positive experience.Lenz Family

Acharya Dental is one of the most well-equipped dental clinics in Chennai. The team of doctors are extremely kind and talented, and help me feel at ease throughout the procedures. Truly the best.
Firstly, thank you very much, Dr Varun; you and your team at Dr Acharya's clinic provided me with world-class dental service, from treatment planning to completing my dental treatment. It was seamless and well executed, with minimal discomfort to me as a patient. I am an overseas citizen of India; my limited time in India put much pressure on Dr Varun's already busy schedule. Varun was so understanding and accommodating in working around my treatment needs. The dental treatment was world-class, and Dr Varun, I can confidently say you will keep Dr Acharya's clinic's reputation very high.

Satisfied with the facilities, treatment.My recent treatment done by Dr. Mahesh is also falls in line with their exceptional tQualitytreatment, I highly appreciate and thankful to Acharya Dental
Had problems with my 28 wisdom tooth and Dr Mahesh at Acharya Dental was so meticulous in his process and I had the best experience with no pain . Strongly recommend for folks to give utmost care to dental issues and no better place than Acharya Dental in Nungambakkam Chennai … thanks doc at AD for getting world class experience to Chennai !
I was diagnosed with chronic periodontis and was recommended by a team of doctors at Acharya Dental to undergo tooth extraction, bone grafting, implant, and crown fixture. All in that order.At every stage of my recommended dental plan, I was thoroughly satisfied and impressed with Dr Varun Acharya's professionalism, kindness, patience, empathy, and attention to detail. Any time I had an issue cropping up that needed some advice, Dr Varun always made himself available on WhatsApp.Now, I feel bolstered with two big molars at the back of my lower jaw. Dr Varun's meticulous craftsmanship with regards to crown measurements was just gratifying and commendable. I am so happy that I regained my biting power and am able to comfortably chew and grind food with the new implants and crowns. They (the new implants and crowns) have just blended in well with my mouth contours and profile and I don't have an iota of a feeling that there is a new kid in the bloc. The line between the old and the new has nicely blurred.My Sincere thanks to Dr Varun Acharya and his team at Acharya Dental for their wonderful support. I realised the value for my money too.More important, the good thing about Acharya Dental is their emphasis on preventive dentistry which is rare in India. I have no hesitation in recommending Acharya Dental for your dental needs..
