White Spot Restoration by Dr Lia Vo at Vo Dentistry, Lawrenceville, GA 30043

White spots on teeth can be caused by too much fluoride, illness, medication, or an interruption of the proper enamel formation. The spots may be barely visible, or they may contrast with the surrounding tooth. If the teeth dry out, as in the case of a patient who routinely breathes through his or her mouth, the white spots become quite prominent. Most of the time, these spots can be simply polished off. If they go too deep into the tooth, however, they must be restored with tooth preparation and bonding of a tooth-colored material. Once removed, they do not return. White spots affect the permanent teeth more than baby teeth. While they cannot be bleached out, as can fluorosis discolorations, whitening of all the teeth may make them less noticeable.

Shown below is a case of severe white spot on #9.  It is conservatively restored using tooth-colored materials by Dr Lia Vo at the Vo Dentistry, Lawrenceville GA.
