ICON Treatment
Drs. Kang or MacMurray are excited to offer Icon treatment at their office. ICON is a revolutionary new approach to treatment of incipient cavities and unsightly white spots on teeth. Developed in Europe over the past decade, it is the subject of numerous international studies proving its effectiveness. This breakthrough micro technology fills and reinforces demineralized enamel without destructive drilling or painful shots. Icon will minimize the appearance of white spots from fluorosis, deminerilization, trauma and discoloration left after orthodontics. ICON provides a highly esthetic alternative to treatments of white spots. Dr. Kang has a customized technique that is very conservative and effective. This procedure is painfree it requires no drilling and no anesthetic and is completed in one appointment. After one appointment you will see the results!
