Inlays and onlays, which are custom-made to restore damaged teeth, are often made from gold alloys. Gold is chosen for its workability, allowing for a precise, custom fit. Palladium and platinum are frequently added to enhance the inlays’ and onlays’ strength and resistance to wear, as these components endure a significant amount of chewing pressure. The corrosion resistance of platinum and palladium also ensures that the inlays and onlays maintain their integrity and do not deteriorate over time, making them ideal for long-term restorations.
