After drying and isolating the teeth, we wash them multiple times with a special gel which prepares the teeth for the ICON treatment. We then paint the ICON liquid over the teeth and let the resin infiltrate.
ICON treatment is a revolutionary non-invasive approach to improve the appearance of teeth – removing white’s spots or a mottled appearance.
It removes marks (white or brown), making teeth a uniform colour without covering the tooth’s natural surface. What’s more, it doesn’t use any drilling or injections. We normally advise undertaking a course of teeth whitening first to brighten the overall tooth colour. This can be discussed further with you at your consultation.
