ICON® White Spot Treatment & Resin Enamel Infiltration
We are delighted to welcome you to Hampshire Dental Care in Basingstoke. Gently erase white spots, fluorosis, and post-brace demineralisation marks without drilling, needles, or removing healthy enamel in a single visit.
Who Is ICON Suitable For?
We often recommend ICON treatment for patients experiencing any of the following common enamel concerns:
Post-Orthodontic White Spots
White chalky marks left around where brackets were bonded after fixed braces are removed.
Dental Fluorosis
Chalky white mottled patches or streaks caused by excess fluoride exposure during early enamel development.
Early Enamel Demineralisation
Porous micro-lesions in the outer enamel layer before a physical cavity has formed.
Enamel Hypocalcification
Congenital or developmental enamel defects resulting in uneven white spots on front visible teeth.
If you are unhappy with the appearance of your teeth due to uneven white patches, but do not want to commit to more invasive cosmetic procedures, ICON is likely to be a great fit. We will examine your teeth during your consultation and advise you honestly on suitability based on the depth and location of the lesions.

Painless & Anxiety-Free
Ideal for nervous patients or younger smiles looking for gentle, non-destructive cosmetic refinement.
How ICON Treatment Works
Completed in four gentle, comfortable steps in a single 45–60 minute appointment:
Gentle Enamel Prep (Icon-Etch)
The tooth is gently cleaned and a mild etching gel is applied to open the microscopic pores of the white spot lesion without harming healthy enamel.
Moisture Evaporation (Icon-Dry)
A medical drying alcohol is applied to remove moisture from the micro-porosities, previewing the natural optical blending effect.
Resin Infiltration (Icon-Infiltrant)
A highly fluid, clear optical resin is applied. Through capillary action, it deeply penetrates into the porous enamel matrix.
LED Curing & High-Gloss Polish
The resin is hardened with dental blue LED light and polished to a mirror-like shine, leaving your tooth silky smooth and evenly toned.
