title: Aesthetic inlays and onlays: the coming of age.
abstract: There are many prominent teaching clinicians who feel that inlays and onlays (of whatever colour) are a grossly under-utilised restoration and that crowns are an over-utilised restoration. I think it is worthwhile to examine some of the possible reasons for this unfortunate situation (for our patients) and see if the reasons for dentists' reluctance to incorporate these restorations into their routine services are really valid today.
