Icon® for White Spots
Erase white spots and enjoy a smooth, even smile—without drilling or injections. White spots on teeth can make you feel self-conscious, even if your smile is otherwise healthy. At Peace Valley Dentistry we offer Icon Resin Infiltration, a breakthrough treatment that removes white spot lesions quickly, comfortably, and with beautiful, natural-looking results.
What Causes White Spots? White spots on enamel can develop for several reasons, including:
- Early signs of tooth decay (demineralization)
- Orthodontic treatment (braces)
- Fluorosis (excess fluoride during tooth development)
- Enamel defects from childhood illness or trauma
While whitening treatments may improve overall brightness, they usually don’t correct these localized white patches. That’s where Icon® comes in.
How Icon Works
Icon is a minimally invasive treatment that uses a liquid resin to penetrate and blend with the tooth’s enamel.
- The tooth surface is gently prepared—no drilling required.
- A special resin infiltrates the porous white spot.
- The resin is hardened and polished, masking the discoloration.
The result: a smoother, more uniform tooth color that blends seamlessly with the rest of your smile.
