What is the “Icon” system?
The “Icon” system, developed by German manufacturers “DMG Dental,” was originally designed to treat interdental caries. Later, it was used to treat tooth tissue damage on the labial surfaces of teeth and to remove stains caused by various factors. Today, it is the most advanced method for treating minor enamel damage. This system is called micro-invasive because it does not require drilling or filling teeth. Research shows that treatment with the “Icon” system is 89% more effective than fluoride therapy!

Is it possible to cure caries without pain?
By detecting the early stages of caries in time, a tooth can be treated, and further problems prevented. With the “Icon” system, the damaged enamel is restored without drilling or filling. The tooth is impregnated with a special infiltrant, which hermetically seals the damage to the tooth tissue and protects the tooth from external damage.
When is it worth treating with the “Icon” system?
The “Icon” system is effective when the damage has affected the enamel and has penetrated no deeper than the first layer of dentin. Such damage does not cause pain but, if left untreated, can eventually affect deeper tooth tissues. The “Icon” system helps prevent decay at an early stage. Teeth can be treated with the “Icon” system when:
- White spots appear on the teeth, indicating enamel damage due to decay.
- After eruption, teeth have white/yellowish spots, which indicates enamel weakening (less mineralization) due to dental fluorosis or other causes.
- White spots can appear after orthodontic treatment due to enamel demineralization. The “Icon” system easily solves this problem.
- Tooth discoloration occurs after dental trauma.
If the damage has penetrated deeper, micro-invasive treatment may not be enough, and the tooth may need to be drilled and filled. Therefore, it is essential to visit the dentist or dental hygienist regularly, as they can detect micro-damage to the enamel in time and prevent more significant problems and higher treatment costs.
What are the benefits of the “Icon” system?
Treatment with the “Icon” system prevents deeper enamel damage, keeping the tooth healthy.
The “Icon” system strengthens the damaged area and acts as a barrier protecting the tooth from acid exposure.
The “Icon” infiltrant is similar to healthy enamel, restoring the natural tooth surface and color during treatment.
The treatment is entirely painless, and the patient does not experience discomfort.
After removing spots, teeth look more aesthetic.
The “Icon” system can be used to treat patients of all ages, including children.
Bacterial plaque builds up significantly less on infiltrated teeth after treatment with this system.
The procedure lasts 30-60 minutes.
After treatment, no special or additional dental care or oral hygiene products are required.
