Until recently, dental professionals have had few choices in the treatment of dental caries (decay) in order to remineralize enamel. ICON offers a solution to combat incipient caries without sacrificing healthy tooth structure. This can be done in one sitting at our Guelph dental practice. It can be performed without drilling or anesthesia. The Infiltrant (a highly fluid type of resin) penetrates the enamel caries and blocks the diffusion paths for cariogenic acids. This promotes the early inhibition of caries in hard to reach areas and on smooth surfaces of teeth. This assists in closing the gap between preventative therapies and corrective restoration treatments.
The use of ICON treatments can avoid the requirement for more costly procedures relating to dental restoration. Speak to your local Guelph cosmetic dentist about ICON treatment for your dentistry concerns. Treatments that are primarily cosmetic often have the added benefit of being a preventative measure (along with regular brushing and flossing) against the development of corrosion.
Many people mistake the white spots or mottled appearance of their teeth for staining and think that the overall colour of the tooth can be improved by teeth whitening,however this would have little effect as the white spots will still remain a lighter colour than the rest of the tooth.
Request an appointment with Guelph Dental Health Care if you are concerned with the appearance of white blemishes and the suitability of ICON cavity treatment. Guelph family dentist Dr Diodati and his team are here for your cosmetic dentist concerns.
