Discover how Icon Resin Infiltration can erase white spots and enamel imperfections effortlessly.
Icon Resin Infiltration is a minimally invasive treatment designed to eliminate white spots and correct enamel defects. Icon is also the best and most advanced method to treat early (incipient) enamel cavities. It’s permanent and highly effective. Unlike procedures that require drilling or anesthesia, this advanced technique uses a special resin to penetrate and blend seamlessly with your natural enamel. Not only does it improve your smile's appearance, but it also helps strengthen and protect your teeth.
What to Expect During Your Icon Resin Treatment in Pasadena
The process is straightforward and completed in just one visit to our dental office in Pasadena. Here’s what you can expect during the treatment with Dr. B and our professional staff:
- Teeth Cleaning – The teeth are gently cleaned to remove plaque or debris.
- Etching – A mild gel is applied to open the pores of the affected enamel.
- Resin Application – The Icon resin is applied, filling the demineralized areas and blending with the healthy enamel. The special clear resin will harden and protect the enamel, and reduce or eliminate the unsightly white spots.
- Curing and Finishing – The resin is hardened using a special light and polished for a smooth, natural finish. Because the specially formulated resin penetrates into the enamel, it’s not a surface coating that will wear out over time and require replacement.
Depending on the number of tooth surfaces to be treated, the entire procedure can take as little as 15 minutes to an hour, and there is no drilling, no shots, and no discomfort.
