What is Icon White Spot treatment?

It is an effective solution for eliminating white spots, enamel defects, and fluorosis, restoring your teeth’s natural colour and strength. These unsightly white spots can often diminish the appearance of an otherwise healthy smile, causing self-consciousness and discomfort. Using advanced dental technology and innovative techniques, Icon White Spot Treatment targets the root cause of white spots without the need for invasive procedures or extensive downtime. Unlike traditional treatments that may involve drilling or anaesthesia, Icon Treatment is minimally invasive and requires only one visit to our clinic in Thames Ditton.

Our treatment process

Consultation

Dr Bravis will examine your teeth and discuss your specific concerns. Then, your teeth will be gently cleaned, and the surrounding gums will be protected to ensure a comfortable procedure.

Resin Application

We will apply a special solution to the white spots, preparing the surface for the application of tooth-coloured resin. This resin fills in the gaps, effectively restoring the natural colour of your teeth.

Curing and Polishing

Once the resin is applied, it will be hardened using a curing light. After curing, your teeth will be polished to achieve a smooth and flawless finish, seamlessly blending with the rest of your smile.

Aftercare Instructions

We will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure the longevity of your results. This includes good oral hygiene practices and dietary habits to maintain the appearance of your treated teeth.

How does it work?

Icon White Spot Treatment works by infiltrating the microstructure of the tooth, effectively masking the appearance of white spots and strengthening the enamel from within. During the procedure, our specialist, Dr Bravis, meticulously applies a special solution to the affected teeth, opening the pores and allowing a tooth-coloured resin to penetrate deeply. This resin fills the gaps caused by white spots, blending seamlessly with the natural tooth structure to restore its colour and vitality. Once applied, the resin is hardened using a curing light, ensuring a durable and long-lasting result.
