Inlays and onlays are dental restoration methods used to repair rear teeth that have mild to moderate tooth decay or cracked and fractured teeth that are not sufficiently damaged to need a crown. These procedures are a popular choice among people looking to restore the form and function of their teeth without resorting to more invasive procedures. Known for its affordable and high-quality dental services, Thailand has become a go-to destination for these treatments.
Please note that the prices provided are estimations and may vary based on various factors. Additionally, these prices do not include flights or accommodation.

Inlays and onlays are types of indirect fillings, meaning that they are fabricated outside of the mouth and then bonded to the affected tooth. An inlay is similar to a filling and fits inside the cusp tips (top edges) of the tooth. An onlay is a more extensive restoration that covers one or more cusps. They're used when the tooth damage is not severe enough to warrant a dental crown but is too significant for a regular filling.
Both treatments help to strengthen the tooth, restore its shape, and prevent further damage. They're typically made from composite resin or porcelain, offering a natural look that can match the color of your existing teeth.
To prepare for an inlay or onlay procedure, the dentist will first remove the decay or damage from the tooth and shape the remaining tooth structure to support the inlay or onlay. Impressions of the tooth are then taken and sent to a dental lab where the inlay or onlay is made.
Choosing a reputable dental clinic in Thailand is a critical step when considering these procedures. Look for facilities that uphold high standards of hygiene and have skilled dental professionals experienced in performing inlays and onlays.
During the inlay or onlay procedure, after the tooth has been prepared, a temporary filling may be placed on the tooth. The dentist will then place the inlay or onlay on the tooth and ensure it fits correctly and matches the natural tooth color. The inlay or onlay is then bonded to the tooth with a strong resin adhesive and polished to a smooth finish.
After the procedure, you might experience some discomfort, inflammation, or sensitivity, but these symptoms should subside within a few days. You can manage any pain with over-the-counter pain relievers.
As far as flying home or the recovery period in Thailand is concerned, inlays and onlays don't require significant downtime. However, it's recommended to wait until any numbness from the local anesthesia has worn off before eating to avoid biting your tongue or cheek.
The cost of inlays and onlays in Thailand can range from $200 to $500 per tooth, making it a more affordable option compared to many Western countries. The exact price can vary depending on the material used and the complexity of the procedure.

Inlays and onlays typically cost between $200 and $500 per tooth in Thailand, depending on the complexity of the procedure and the materials used.
The process of getting inlays and onlays usually requires two dental visits – one for the preparation and impression, and a second to fit the inlay or onlay.
As inlays and onlays don't require significant downtime, you can fly home shortly after the procedure. However, it's recommended to wait until any numbness from the local anesthesia has worn off before eating.
"Whilst searching for information on getting my cataracts done, I found that most websites do not provide sufficient information. I was fortunate enough to find Konkai.Health and connect with Pam.
She and other members of Konkai go far and beyond to do everything possible to give you the best advice.
I highly recommend this company for health related matters whilst you are in Thailand. Real five star assistance."
I made the decision to undergo cosmetic surgery in Bangkok, Thailand due to the high prices in Australia, Unsure about choosing the right hospital and doctors in Thailand, my friend suggested Konkai Medical Tourism Agency, they guided me through everything and their professional team, with strong medical connections in Thailand, made the process smooth.The surgery went well, and I’m very happy with the results.I highly recommend Konkai to anyone considering to come to Thailand for medical treatment 👍
"Konkai helped me with what was becoming a confusing process. After contacting Konkai they quickly found a doctor that specialized in the procedure I requested and helped set up an appointment during my trip to Thailand. I will definitely contact them again if the need arises."
"I live in New Zealand, and my partner and I went on a holiday in Laos (Asia). I became sick and needed an emergency stomach operation. I reached out to this company, and they have been nothing but helpful.
They helped us with translating in Laos; they organised a taxi driver who was waiting for us at arrival and drove us to the hospital, where they organised a scan for me. I only needed to show my passport and an email when I arrived. I was already in the system for the appointment.
Everything went really smoothly. The company is professional and reliable, and the staff is super friendly too. I would highly recommend this company. I am grateful for the great service this company offered when I was in need."
"Thanks for your help things went very smoothly. Your help is essential for easing my anxiety before my trip. Excellent job."
"I can say that the whole medical journey was very pleasant. The information given before the actual start was good. The meeting and intake with the doctor was clear.
Konkai Health was always responding fast and helpful if I came up with questions. And the actual surgery had a good outcome also. Now I just ended my last check-up, and I am very delighted how everything went."
"The customer care at Konkai Health has been great. I was looking at treatment options for my back. They got back to me fast and gave me options to connect with some top doctors and surgeons in Thailand. The doctors assessed my condition, did a video call, and gave me recommendations to fix it. Thank you. I recommend them for anyone interested in medical tourism to Thailand."
"I will say you made it so easy to get everything scheduled. I expected it to take much longer trying to find doctors waiting on responses etc. I was happy with the doctor just going ahead and getting it done on the same day as the first procedure. Everything went well and all the nurses were great. Thanks!"
"Konkai Health's service has truly been outstanding. From providing directions to the hospital, hotel recommendations in there, or simply checking up on how everything has gone. I fully recommend them to anyone wanting to see a doctor in Thailand."
I would like to share my very good experience with konkai.health as I was searching for a clinic for my cataract surgery. Khun Pam Van Wissen organised me in no time all appointments at Bumrungrad Hospital in Bangkok which has distinguished itself through excellent service. I would like to say thank you to all staff, nurses and especially to Dr. Keerati Pungpapong who all did an absolutely excellent job and I felt from the first moment in best hands. Thank you again Khun Pam from Konkai Health for a great job.
I am very happy with the results. I cannot thank the people at Asia Cosmetic Hospital enough for their help and service while I was in the hospital and my stay at the hotel. I feel fine with very little if any pain and I am bringing my strength back up to before surgery. I know it will take many months for everything to heal but right now I feel strong both physical and mentally.
Thank you Konkai for all the work on your part to bring this all together for me. You don’t know what this means to me.
"Everything went really well the staff were kind and helpful my experience there was very good experience"
" I returned home safe and sound, Thank you for all your help :)"
