How much is a porcelain inlay?

[Miroslav]

Hi

I have a back tooth that has a big cavity and my dentist has recommended a gold inlay for the tooth because he says a normal filling will break as the cavity is so big.

I dont want to have a gold inlay because I think the colour of the inlay will show when I smile and people will be able to see gold inside my mouth.

I am aware there is also the option of a porcelain inlay which is supposed to look much better and more natural looking than the gold inlay. I would like to know how much a porcelain inlay costs and how many visits does it take to have one done on my tooth?

Thank you for your post. A porcelain inlay costs £495-£545 depending on material and complexity at Pearl dental clinic. A porcelain inlay usually requires two visits over 2 weeks for its completion.
