The solution to treating caries while preserving healthy tooth structureUntil now, dental professionals have had only two choices to treat early caries: use fluoride and other treatments to remineralize enamel in the very early stages – or “wait and see” until it’s time to “drill and fill.” Icon represents a revolutionary new approach to treat incipient caries: a caries infiltrant. This breakthrough micro-invasive technology fills and reinforces demineralized enamel without drilling or anesthesia, up to the first third of dentin (D1). |

Why do previous treatments fall short?
- Fluoride therapy isn’t always effective in the advanced stages
- Filling almost always sacrifices large amounts of healthy tooth structure
How Icon effectively infiltrates early caries
 |
 |
| With the onset of caries, cariogenic acids attack the enamel and draw out minerals. |
After treatment with Icon, the pore system is closed, blocking the progression of caries. |

“White spots are a major issue for my post-orthodontic patients. Icon enables me to remove them in one simple and painless treatment. It’s a “wow!” moment for the patient and a significant source of growth for my practice.” – Dr. Timothy Hess, DDS |
