ICON White Spot Treatment in Allen, TX

After months or years of braces, sometimes “white spots” can be seen on the front permanent teeth after they are taken off. To complete your child's new smile, we offer ICON, a conservative treatment that is a great solution to removing those white spots. ICON treatments are minimally invasive and designed to correct white spots on permanent teeth. At Cuddly Smiles Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, pediatric dentists Dr. Yvonne Felli and Dr. Ajikwaga Felli offer this treatment to children and teens in McKinney, Murphy, and Frisco, TX who have just gotten their braces off and would like to create an even more stunning smile. For more information, contact our Allen, TX office today.

At the start of this procedure, one of our dental experts will clean and rinse your child's teeth. From there, we will coat the teeth in a special solution, which will also be rinsed off. After that, we'll spread the ICON resin on the teeth. This material, which is kind of runny in texture, will sit on the teeth for a bit while it soaks into the enamel. Dr. Yvonne Felli or Dr. Ajikwaga Felli will shine a light on the ICON to cure and harden it and will polish the teeth using a small handheld device. We may need to repeat these steps to get the desired outcome. This procedure takes between 45 – 60 minutes, and results can last for upward of two or more years. After your child's appointment, you can enjoy the rest of your day!

When children have braces, they may have white spots after they get their braces off. These white spots are the result of being protected from food stains and more while covered by braces. At Cuddly Smiles Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, we offer the minimally invasive ICON white spot treatment for this exact problem. In less than an hour, we can reduce the white spots on your child's teeth by creating an evenly toned color across the whole tooth. This treatment is a great way to polish off your child's new look after getting their braces off for a bright, incredible smile.
