What are White Spot Lesions?

White spot lesions are early signs of tooth decay that appear as white or chalky spots on the enamel. They are often caused by:

  • Poor oral hygiene: Plaque buildup can lead to demineralization, weakening the enamel.
  • Orthodontic treatment: Braces can make it difficult to clean teeth properly, increasing the risk of WSLs.
  • Fluorosis: Excessive fluoride intake during tooth development can cause white spots.

How Does Icon Resin Infiltration Work?

Icon resin infiltration is a painless, drill-free treatment that can effectively mask white spot lesions. The process involves:

  1. Preparation: The tooth surface is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Infiltration: A special resin is applied to the white spot, penetrating the porous enamel.
  3. Hardening: The resin is hardened with a special light, creating a smooth, even surface.

Benefits of Icon Resin Infiltration:

  • Minimally invasive: No drilling or anesthesia is required.
  • Preserves healthy tooth structure: The treatment does not require the removal of any enamel.
  • Effective: Icon resin infiltration can significantly improve the appearance of white spots.
  • Long-lasting: With proper care, the results can last for years.

Is Icon Resin Infiltration Right for Your Child?
