White Spots On The Teeth

Composite Bonding.

Case Study 12

Problem:

• There are white spots on the teeth. These are areas of diminished calcification of the outer covering ( enamel ) of the tooth.
  
  

• The white spots are quite noticeable causing self-consciousness and limiting the natural tendency to smile and laugh.

Solution:

• Minimal tooth structure is removed in the area of the white spots and a composite material which is perfectly matched to the colour of the adjacent teeth is placed making the white spots invisible.
  
  
• This is accomplished in only one appointment often without the need for anesthetic.
