The Icon whitening system is a revolutionary technology used for the micro-invasive treatment of smooth surface and proximal caries lesions. These are the discolored or white spots that you can see on your anterior teeth. In one patient visit, and with no drilling, Icon can arrest the progression of early enamel lesions and white spot caries-like lesions. Icon treatments are done in office, in most instances in one visit, and with no discomfort to the patient! In one hour you can see a dramatic change in the appearance of your smile.
