Fluorosis treatment using Icon infiltration, step by step

The Icon microinvasive caries infiltration can be used not only to mask cariogenic white spots on smooth surfaces. Mild to moderate fluorosis can also be treated successfully - esthetically and gently - in a single sitting.
In this video, Dr. Marie Clement clearly demonstrates the treatment steps for the infiltration therapy, which is as straightforward as it is gentle. From the preparatory etching and infiltration with a highly fluid resin to the esthetic result.
Please note:
The costs for this treatment depend on the concrete case and are defined by the dentist. We're sorry that we as the manufacturer of the material can‘t make any statements concerning treatment costs.

My original comment said that I wasn't happy because a ridge was left on my 2 front teeth BUT my dentist had not finished. She give a whitening kit to use for a week to brighten my teeth which is why the ridge was not filled in. I had these spots from a teenager and it effected my confidence for years and stopped me smiling at people. Now that she's finished....... I'm really pleased with the result so much so I wanted to cry and I NEVER get like that :) Thanks to the people that invented it and thanks to my dentist ❤

Since I was young my teeth looked really unsightly in the morning with chalky white spots after they dried out overnight. By mid-afternoon once the enamel was rehydrated they'd look completely different - almost normal. I think it was mild-moderate fluorosis. Had this treatment done 2 months ago. Results are life changing. My teeth look healthy in the morning now even if I mouth-breathe all night long. They look as good now as they did the day of the procedure 2 months ago. I am hoping it lasts.

​@@jibbo123 it's going to vary so much by region and by dental practice (especially since insurance isn't involved), but I paid about as much per tooth as a small cavity filling would cost in my area. A bit less than that actually. I did 6 teeth.

​@@jibbo123 Find a dentist who has done a lot of these. If they mention it on their website that's a pretty good indication they'll know what they're doing. I had mine done in Marriotsville MD. It's been 7 months and the teeth still look great.

One dentist told me that he didn't want to shave down my natural teeth for veneers as they were healthy, just had the fluorosis spots. He found this alternative. I appreciated that and now he's my new dentist. He charged $150 per tooth for the treatment, a far cry from $1,200-$1,500 per tooth for a veneer.

Recently, the dentist gave me fluoridation and white spots appeared on my front teeth. one spot was from childhood.

[@user-oz6ul1su6q]

I had this treatment done today! I was the first patient my dentist had ever tried this on. I found out about ICON via Tik Tok and mentioned it to my dentist at my last cleaning. She was very intrigued, but had never heard of it. Thankfully she was willing to try it for me and we were both pleased with the results. My case was pretty severe. I had 8 teeth done total, all on the top. The treatment did help tremendously, but it didn't get rid of all of the discoloration/white spots. So my question is can this treatment be repeated to achieve maximum results or is it a one-time and your done thing?

(1) After applying the icon etch and icon dry, how do you determine if the teeth are ready for the resin infiltrant? 1:18 vs. 2:20 ? (2) Also, before applying a subsequent round of icon etch, do you need to rinse the teeth?

[@dmgdentalEN]

Dear Edward, Thank you very much for your interest in Icon. Referring to your questions: (1) You judge by visual inspection: If the spots disappear in the first 2-3 seconds after application of Icon-Dry, the lesion is ready for infiltration. If the stains are still visible immediately after application of Icon-Dry, it should be etched again. (2) No, you do not need to rinse again before the etching process.

I have severe fluorosis and had already went for my dental check up to get it remove. My dentist suggested that i do bleaching for it and arranged for me to get it done in 5 months, however i am not convinced that bleaching/whitening could get rid of my white spots. Do you think bleaching could get rid of the white spots?

[@dmgdentalEN]

Dear Diana, in many cases of fluorosis treatments bleaching is used prior to infiltration as you can also see in the video above. An improvement of the esthetics after bleaching is often observed. Please notice: if you are not satisfied with the result after bleaching, infiltration with Icon is still possible. Please understand, that it is not possible for us to give you a detailed treatment recommendation for your diagnosis. Your DMG Social Media-Team

before getting this treatment do you have to have no cavities? and also how much will it cost for this?

[@dmgdentalEN]

Hi Gasper, thanks for your question! The infiltration treatment can only be successfull in cases in which the lesion is not cavitated. Very early proximal caries can be treated before a cavity occurs. Therefore, the infiltration of early proximal caries lesions can prevent a filling treatment. Concerning the cost - those depend on the individual case. Hope that helps!

When I was in my early 20s, I went to a dentist to get treatment done for flurosis, and she gave me composite veneers, but removed so much enamel. It was heartbreaking. After going from dentist to dentist, I found one who gave me a proper treatment and got porcelain veneers on the 4 front teeth. The only thing is that the flurosis on the teeth beside the veneers have white spots and do not make my smile look uniform. I wish the 1st dentist had not removed so much enamel unnecessarily, and I wonder why she did this. Anyway, hoping that the white spots can be removed through this so my teeth can match the veneers. :'-(

I trusted the water was made for babies and it was better for her than tap water. She's such a beautiful girl that hates to smile. I cried so many times about this.

[@shokarts2181]

I had okish teeth but when I visited the dentist ig he made that liquid for me and it harm my tooth so much they're weak now... It's been two years and it's just getting worse now.. all I can say is that dont use toothpaste that has that chemical.. and if possible get this treatment "icon treatment" I can't get it since I believe it's not done in India anywhere :) maybe I have to get crowns or something but you can save her teeth.. and also keep her mouth hydrated and avoid acidic fruits and liquid... Maybe make her smoothie of those fruits and let her drink it through straw... Don't worry.. it will be fine Hope she'll be ok

[@__SalmeeraJoseph__]

Don't.. if she is below 18.. I wouldn't recommend this.. and removing the smear layer so many times

[@josephbriggs7067]

Too much fluoride consumption, don’t use fluoride toothpaste

[@dmgdentalEN]

Hi everyone, thanks for your interest. Please note that Icon does not contain any fluoride. Icon can however be used to treat fluorosis gently and successfully as shown in our video :).

[@meeeeyou4171]

please tell me, is there any harm to enamel? I understand that the top layer of enamel is removed a little? I have mild fluorosis

[@dmgdentalEN]

Hello, thanks for your question! Infiltration treatment is microinvasive, i.e. successful treatment requires the removal of a few micrometers of enamel. However, this is out of all proportion to invasive treatment methods such as filling therapy. For the esthetic masking of white tooth discoloration, as seen in the video above, infiltration treatment is the most substance-preserving treatment currently available. You are also welcome to visit drilling-no-thanks.com/en/start/ Hope that helps!

[@BK1127]

Does the resin discolor or stain over time or with food like a traditional bond would? Also, are you able to bleach your teeth after? Would it make the teeth look unevenly colored again if you did? Thank you!

[@dmgdentalEN]

Discolorations or stains are often induced by material excess. Therefore, in the course of the Icon treatment the excess removing should be done carefully. A gentle polishing should be done after the Icon treatment additionally. However, if stains or discolorations occur a gentle polishing is often enough to remove the stains or discolorations. A bleaching treatment after an Icon treatment is possible as well. Unevenly colored teeth should be the result after both treatments.

My dentist applied this for sensitivity treatment and it made my sensitivity 4× worse. I'm in constant pain now 😫 its been over a week

[@dmgdentalEN]

Hello, thanks for your message! Icon Icon is indicated only for approximal caries and moderate to mild fluorosis. Could you specity in which context the treatment was done in your case? Please also feel free to contact us with more information: [e-mail]

[@linuxlinux9914]

Your dentist didnt know what they were doing. literally this process is using acid to remove the layer that is white. they then polish the teeth to make it look uniform. You need to get a new dentist. recommend using potassium reminerlizing gel or sensodyne tooth paste which helps stop sensitivity .

[@anaa2568]

Loved the video! Just one quick question what does this treatment usually cost? I know it really depends, but if someone knows rough estimate please let me know, thank you

[@dmgdentalEN]

Thanks for your message! The cost of treatment depends on the individual case and are defined by the dentist. As the manufacturer of the product, we unfortunately cannot make any statements concerning treatment costs.

If you are in Canada. It depends on the dentist as it is considered a cosmetic matter. But I assume it ranges between 100-200 CAD$ per tooth

[@nameisamine]

How long do the results of resin infiltration like this usually last? 🤔

[@dmgdentalEN]

Hi My name is Aminé, thanks for your question! So in principle, no time limit is known yet. Studies prove the effectiveness of the treatment over several years, but at least over 5 years. Further long-term studies are still ongoing. Hope that helps!

Hello, thanks for your question! In many cases it might be useful (or even necessary) to repeat the etching process in the beginning. (But the complete treatment as a whole should show the desired result after only one time.) If you would like more information, feel free to visit drilling-no-thanks.com/en/start/ Hope that helps!

It is much more fluid and penetrates into the porous tissue of the enamel by capillary forces before a cavity is formed. For more info please follow the.links in the description. Best regards Your DMG Social Media Team

[@Minnje]

Is this suitable for hypoplastic teeth? Also what is this treatment based on, wearing down the enamel so much that the spots don't show anymore?

[@dmgdentalEN]

Dear Min165, Icon is not indicated for hypoplastic teeth. Nevertheless, some dentist reached great results for example on MIH teeth. But please recognize, that we don’t have the indication in our instruction for use. Icon is a very fluent resin, which penetrates into the lesion body. For this, it is necessary to get access to the surface of the lesion. So only the surface layer over the porous lesion must be removed. Because the refractive index of the resin is near to the refractive index of natural enamel, the spots disappear. Kind regards, Your DMG Social Media Team

[@Minnje]

@@dmgdentalEN Thank you very much for the reply. As a dental hygienist I'm very interested in this product but before recommending it to any patient I want to be 100% sure it's safe and that I've understood the instructions right. I've got one more question about the product, if you've got time to answer. In the US Icon resin infiltrant instructions (which I found on the DMG website) it says "the use is contra-indicated in case of lesions due to fluorosis and hypoplasia". This is very confusing to me since I've seen many tutorials on using it on fluorosis and I've heard some dental hygienists or dentists use it on hypoplasia as well, at least in my counry (Finland). Is there a reason why the resin isn't indicated for these?

[@dmgdentalEN]

Sorry for the irritation. Icon can definitely be used for mild to moderate fluorosis. This indication is an extension of the original range of applications and has proven to be scientifically robust over the last few years. This should already be taken into account in the current Instructions for Use. (where fluorosis is an official indication, hypoplasia no longer stated as an contra-indication) Maybe you saw an older version? In some countries, the process of official approval takes longer. The range of indications that are communicated may therefore differ from country to country at certain points in time, as the insights into Icon application areas are constantly evolving.

[@gageyz]

my teeth look pretty much exactly the same as the person shown in the video. i live in the houston area, a short distance away in a fairly large town. i was wondering if this is commonly available or must i seek a major named dentist in hopes to find this product? my teeth have always embarrassed me for this exact reason and finding this video is like a miracle. i would love to have this treatment done. i just need to know if it is commonly used by dentists and if it is usually affordable for a middle class citizen like myself?

[@gageyz]

also, after the treatment is done is it possible to get teeth whitening treatment? the finished product in this video looks amazing but if i had this done i would want extra work done after the fact to give my teeth a more white shiny color. would this be an option down the road?
