A minimally invasive way to restore a brighter, more even smile – with no drilling or needles.

At DNTL Smiles & Wellness, we’re proud to offer ICON White Spot Treatment, a revolutionary solution to target unsightly white marks on the teeth caused by enamel hypoplasia, early decay, fluorosis, or previous orthodontic treatment.

Whether these spots are mild or more noticeable, ICON offers a gentle and effective alternative to drilling or composite bonding – restoring a smooth, uniform look without damaging healthy enamel.

What are white spots?

White spots are areas of demineralised enamel that reflect light differently, creating uneven patches on your teeth. They may be caused by:

Fluorosis: Excess fluoride during tooth development.
Braces: Decalcification due to plaque build-up around brackets.
Enamel hypoplasia: Less enamel than average due to development issues.
Early decay: The beginning of enamel breakdown.
Trauma: Injury to developing adult teeth.
Dehydration: Temporary, but sometimes long-lasting.

How does ICON work?

ICON is a resin infiltration treatment that gently penetrates the porous enamel of white spots and fills them with a light-curing material. This equalises the refractive index of the enamel, blending the white patches with the natural tooth shade.

The treatment process:

Assessment: We examine the teeth and ensure ICON is the right option for you.
Preparation: The surface is gently cleaned, and a mild etching gel is applied to open the enamel pores.
Resin infiltration: ICON resin is applied and allowed to penetrate the white spot.
Light curing: A special light hardens the resin, sealing the enamel and blending the colour.
Polishing: The tooth is polished to a smooth, natural finish.

The entire process takes around 30–60 minutes, with no drilling, no anaesthetic, and no recovery time needed.

What are the benefits of ICON?

Minimally invasive: No drilling or enamel removal.
Pain-free: No needles or discomfort.
Fast results: Often in just one appointment.
Long-lasting: Results can last for years.
Natural-looking: Blends beautifully with your tooth shade.
Safe and effective: Preserves healthy enamel.
